Elder Holland

Living in Utah has brought one unexpected perk: apostles showing up at your sacrament meetings. Outside of Utah I have only had 1 apostle (Elder Nelson) come personally to one of my sacrament meetings. Yesterday, completely un-announced, Elder Holland strolled into sacrament meeting. From what I hear he has a house in Midway and whenever he is out here he attends the 11 o'clock meeting. It was so spiritually awesome to see him. He got to speak for the last 10 minutes of our meeting, and in essence he addressed the youth and told them that this is the truth, this is the true church of Jesus Christ. He has been our age but we have not yet been his and it is important for us to know that the gospel is true. He is a witness of Christ.

On a side note, Brenan bore his testimony and after wards Elder Holland stopped Bren as he was walking down to his seat and shook his hand. Super cool.
