NOM

Looks like the announcement's coming on "ministering" if it's the same MO as last night. Nelson makes the announcement, and then the RS and an apostle explains it. Booyah!

Hooray, I get to jump in this session. Last was SO pedantic, I'm not sad I missed commenting on it. But I read everyone's comments faithfully, and ponderized their content. #tendermercies

Well, that's it. Thanks for joining in.

I'm sure everyone who was there will tell the story when they felt the spirit when forced to stand up, and it changed their lives and those around them, and the number of saved souls will increase dramatically and....

Yeah.

Nothing like showing your power by getting everybody to stand up. This is crazy.

This is the kind of nonsense that stresses young missionaries out, when they don't baptize. If you don't have priesthood power and change lives, it's YOUR fault, you inadequate piece of crap.

So Nelson tells a story about how a young dad said a nice prayer over his daughter, but didn't give them a blessing. What the heck does that mean? Well, I'm waiting for him to tell me. Instead, he says we need to BLESS them. Ok then.

HEY HEY HEY!! It's only supposed to be 90 minutes. For crying out loud. 15 more.

Nelson ends.

If some guy came to me telling me what to do because "he had priesthood keys" I'd tell him to shove it. Unbelievable story. No wonder these dudes have no boundaries. They have NONE. What a horrible story.

It's true - do we need an entire meeting devoted to a silly corporate restructuring? Like having faith NOT to be healed, the bar for revelation seems to be set pretty low.

Boy, Oaks loves his legalistic God, doesn't he?

Well, Eyring is talking up home teaching now. I guess it's not being axed or turned into "ministering," as the rumors went. Unless they do it later.

Is it just me, or do Eyring's talks generally lack a central thesis?

No more PEC meetings, ward or stake, and no more High Priests meetings once a year. Oh wait. Still one HP meeting a year, but just this streamlined/royal HP group. I was putting kids to bed and missed most of Nelson and Rasband's talks... poor timing I guess. I did catch the No more HP thing. Did t...

Eyering and Oaks to finish it off. Looks like Nelson just spoke to set up the latest change. That, or they've given up ending a half hour early, which would piss me off.

Consolidate 2 groups into one and continue doing the same thing!

Relabel the groups and meetings.

Receive blessings from a stronger quorum.

Increased unity and mentoring.

Strengthen the priesthood.

This is ground breaking revisions.

Corporate restructuring, Gongdang it!

No more PEC meetings, ward or stake, and no more High Priests meetings once a year.

Oh wait. Still one HP meeting a year, but just this streamlined/royal HP group.

"I testify these changes are the will of the lord" = "We heard lots of presentations about dwindling attendance and widespread apostasy, and we all feel good about making this change to compensate" Yep, Rasband even acknowledged that much with his stories of small quorums in Russia/Africa. That's e...

Here goes Rasband with the bootlicking and "dear prophet" nonsense.

Uh, this wasn't that earthshattering, dude.

It seems they solved the dwindling priesthood attendance problem at one fell swoop.

No joke, that's what it seems.
