I loved conference!!!! It was so good.

[+Slowswift]

Yeah, Conference was amazing.  I particularly liked the talks of President Oaks and Elders Rasband, Lund, Soares, Andersen, and Holland. I definitely look forward to going through this one again!

[Condensation she/her]

I loved Elder Holland's talk, he openly made a joke about going bald...

*laughing*

[Experience he/him]

Oh! The name of the thread was changed!

[Condensation she/her]

Yes it was, and I'm glad.

That part was great

We did General Conference Jeopardy in Seminary, and I got more points than anyone else in the class combined. There was a question about that.

My ward is finally having church every Sunday again! Of course, we’re still taking certain precautions, but I’m excited!

[AonEne he/him]

Nice! Every Sunday, or biweekly? 

[The Windrunner Supreme he/him]

Our church is doing biweekly

We’ve been doing biweekly for a couple months, and now we’re doing every Sunday.

[AonEne he/him]

Have fun, I hope you all stay safe!

I have a Missionary story real quick:

So my family had  guy over for dinner (pre-COVID)  And this guy had a brother.  This brother was... an...interesting person.  He went on a mission & while he was on it he bought knives from a knife-store that was closing down.  Short time later, this guy was carrying around a knife with him into a grocery store, (as I said he was an interesting guy.)  His companion had to go to the bathroom, so while his companion was in the bathroom, this guy starts throwing the knife up, spinning it, and catching it.  It hits the ceiling fan and IMPALES his thigh.  (that's not the craziest part yet.)  Short while later their mission president in a zone meeting starts chewing them out and got this guy really frustrated.  So frustrated that on the way home he has his companion stop the car at every snowman so that this guy could tackle it.  He keeps doing this until they're almost at the apartment and he tackles yet another snowman, this lady comes out of the house and asks him what he was doing.  He replied that he was sorry and he was having a really hard day.  She invites him and his companion inside for hot chocolate and about a month later she's converted and baptized by the guy and his companion.

This remains my favorite conversion story ever.

Hey guys, I had no idea there was a church server on this website. What’s up?

Not too much. Some of us are heading back to church, whether monthly, biweekly, or weekly. There's a Discord server; the link's in my signature. 

We discussed conference a little while back. 

[Eran of Arcadia]

We did our first full ward sacrament meeting last week. It was really weird. Also, my kids forgot how to be reverent, and they do sacrament last, so my son spent all of testimony meeting loudly asking when he was going to get his bread.

Hello there, fellow Truthless! (whom for clarity purposes I will refer to as 16 seeing as I already go by Truthless and The_Truthwatcher goes by Truth) But I’m doing good! How’s church going for you?

[SecondPlace he/him]

It’s going pretty good we are still wearing masks but they are letting us sing now.

[Kelsier'sGodComplex she/her]

Yeah, my ward is still not allowed to sing. We can hum though. It sounds like musical bees 

[basement_boi he/him]

I agree with all of you, it is nice to know how many serious fans are also members

[Mat he/him]

My state's governor just announced that we can't have religious gatherings anymore.  We can go tomorrow, but after that...
