youth confrence

On the third of this month my ward went up to Salt Lake for youth conference. We woke up on Tuesday at six am, then we arrived at around nine and went to Welfare Square, where we got to see how the bishop store house food is made and canned and where it goes . Then we went to Ensign Peak and ate lunch and hiked, then we went to the Salt Lake cemetery to see Pres. Hinkley's grave. (Period , On the back of the headstone there was an engraving that said that the head stone was made out of extra stone. from the temple . I thought that was cool. Then we went to a Joseph Smith movie and we had free time the rest of the night.
On Wednsday the girls woke up first and we went to the Salt Lake temple to do baptisms (for the dead, It was beautiful. I don't know why, but I always pictured temples to be white. instead this one was gray, and when you were inside you felt like there where no trouble in the world, even though we had to run through the rain . Then we went to the church office buildings and we got to look around there. Then we went to eat lunch at the Lion House. They had really good food. After that, we went to the humanitarian center where we got a tour and did some service projects. We were all split up into four groups, two of us doing new born kits, the others doing something else. In my group we did the newborn kits. We put one blanket and hat, one night gown and socks, four diapers and safety pins and a card saying it was from the church . In the end, our leader figured out how many we made and I think it was like four thousand. After that we went to the Taylorsville Institute where we ate and did a testimony meeting. After that we left for home.
I really enjoyed doing youth Conference and I hope I get to do it again soon.
