Wow, Brent. What was your topic? ...and how long were you asked to speak?

Brent said...

I was asked to speak for 15 minutes (yes an adult talk - not a youth talk) on the same topic as one of the general conference talks, so I chose Pres. Monson's talk on being of good cheer. Jocelyn called me after church on Sunday and I missed the call, but Jocelyn left a message and said that she had heard that I had given a great talk in sacrament meeting. I was surprised that she had already heard about my talk, as was Mom. We were both surprised that she had heard through Jillian - we had assumed that Grandma had told her, but we were wrong.

Brent gave a very good talk. It was encouraging and uplifting and he delivered it well (ok, I am his mom). Brent should make a link somehow to a copy of his talk - good for me to review often!
