YSA Fireside

Speaker: Elder Don Clarke
This fireside was up at the Tabernacle downtown. I invited my good friend Hailey to come with me. It was a great fireside, things I needed to remember, things I need to work out. The gospel is such an amazing thing. I love the feeling of the spirit when I attended this fireside. These are a few of my notes from the fireside. Thought I would share;)

He told us that these three things below are things that need to be with us during the fireside. Remembering these three things when going to sacrament, listening to talks, institute classes, any possible way where we are able to and willing to change and become better people.

1. Humble willing to learn
2. problems
3. desire to be better people

Summit- highest point

What are my ambitions?
