On Saturday, I was able to go to Time Out for Women in Philadelphia. It was the 2nd time I’d had the opportunity to attend one of these events. It was really nice. Kind of a Mom’s mini-version of EFY. It had wonderful music and inspirational speakers.
www.deseretbook.com/time-out/ ( I hope this link works -- deseret seemed to be having problems when I tried to test it -- but maybe they take it down on Sundays)
I highly recommend it. If you have the opportunity, Go! Our ward had sixteen sisters attend. It was great to be there with the husbands at home holding down the forts, and just enjoy sister time!
My favorite quote was from the book The Uses of Adversity by Carlfred Broderick: The gospel of Jesus Christ is not insurance against pain. It is resource in event of pain, and when that pain comes (and it will come because we came here on earth to have pain among other things), when it comes, rejoice that you have resource to deal with your pain." This book is actually a talk Brother Broderick gave -- I haven't read the whole talk yet -- but I found it online here:http://rusch.files.wordpress.com/2006/09/the-uses-of-adversity.pdf So I'll save you the price of the book! Enjoy!
