October 2012 General Conference

While it was still dark at 6:00 AM Sunday morning, several members of the Kiritimati Branch in the South Pacific gathered together at a member's home to watch the first (Saturday) session of General Conference. All six full time missionaries serving on this beautiful island (Marshall Island Majuro Mission) were in attendance.  The sun was shining brightly as the morning session ended and we all prepared to regroup back at the meeting house where our regular Sunday meetings would soon be starting.  We will travel back over there tonight at 7:30 PM to watch the rebroadcast of the Saturday afternoon session that will start at 8:00.  It will be a late night by the time we get home. Then tomorrow morning (Monday) we will retrace our travel to London, to watch both sessions of Sunday's live broadcast. Our wonderful hosts will supply lunch for the gathering.  The saints here on Kiritimati Island in the Republic of Kiribati are amazing people.
