President Russell M. Nelson was sustained as the new prophet and president of the church today in General Conference. We also got two new apostles. It was a historic moment because the first Asian (American Asian) and South American (Brazilian) apostles were called. Elder Gong and Elder Soares.
There was also a big change announced during the priesthood session. All Melchizedek priesthood holders will meet together in Elders Quorum. There will no longer be a High Priest Group in each ward. There will just be a High Priest Quorum in each stake, made up of priesthood holders currently to serving in bishoprics, stake presidency, high counsels, patriarch, etc. Once they're released, they'll return to being in the elders quorum. I think it'll be a good change.
I went to Mom's house with Brenda and Keeli and their kids during the priesthood session. We had pizza. It was fun and relaxing! Mom and Dad are planning to build a small house on the side of their house. Brenda will live in their big house while they're on their mission (they plan to leave this fall!) And then when they come home, they'll live in the small house. Brenda might buy their big house eventually.
