Even though it was Thursday, it was treated like the Sabbath, and of course, a change of clothes is in order! No showers, only baby wipes to help clean up with and no make-up either! After breakfast we had a general meeting where Pres Blodgett spoke to the youth about the importance of their patriarchal blessings. Then the men relocated for their priesthood meeting while the women had their relief society meeting. After lunch there was another afternoon of good activities that were appropriate for the "Sabbath". For dinner that night we had a big BBQ with chicken, corn on the cob, pie, and watermelon. That night we had a fireside where there were some musical talents shared along with our Stake President Mickelsen speaking. After his remarks, a testimony meeting began. Within just a few minutes, the youth were lined up awaiting a chance to bear their testimonies with at least a 30 minute wait to get to the mic. There were mostly simple testimonies that were very powerful, a few silly ones that we could have done without, and a couple of testimonies that were quite emotional. A great way to end the last night on the trek.
