Spring LDS General Conference Next Weekend



I am very much looking forward to the Spring General Conference of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, coming up this weekend! It is going to seem sort of strange not to have President Hinckley with us this year, but in truth, he will be closer to us than ever! And I anticpate, with joy, the experience of hearing from our new President and Prophet Thomas S. Monson.

All things have become new!


To get us ready for the Spring General Conference, here are three powerful talks from past LDS General Conferences. Feel free to add your favorites in the comments.

God Bless!
