Hey. I just got a phone call from the Bishop. I have to speak in church THIS Sunday with the rest of the YW presidency. He assigned us a talk given by President Hinckley in the April 2007 conference entitled "Let Virtue Garnish Thy Thoughts Unceasingly".It's a great talk, but I'm way out of my element here. I've spoken in church maybe twice before? I'd rather sing 10 songs back to back than to actually speak intelligibly. I'm struggling with the whole giving a talk from a talk thing. He covers 4 points in the talk and I need some stories/thoughts to share about the following 4 subjects:
1. prayer
2. study (scripture and other)
3. tithing
4. Attend meetings
HELP ME. PLEASE email anything that might save my butt. This is why you don't answer your phone. KIDDING! I know, blessing in heaven...ya ya ya.
HELP ME.
please:)

Hee-hee-hee. (I love that it isn't me.) I will ask my mom if she has anything... she is a virtual fountain of information. It won't be until later Sat night though. Maybe that is too late. Good luck! I can't wait.
don't you know you're supposed to sit on the fence of inactivity to not have to do these things? have i taught you nothing? do i need to move down there to really help you?! i kid.
no ideas. brain dead offically, for the day. good luck though!
Oh Tara. I feel your pain! I hadn't spoken in church for years and was asked twice in a 6 mo. period. The catch? I spoke once on Christmas and then on Fathers Day...so much fun. Go to lds.org and search your heart out. Also, try posting on MC if you dare... ;). I'll be brainstorming for ya.
Think of a personal or scriptual example of each one of the 4 points that you could elaborate on.
I'll keep thinking.... Good luck!
I am special when it comes to talks! I always tell embarrassing stories for some reason...I have issues :) You are going to do great though! I'll email you soon...
Ohhhhhhh - you're SO screwed!! Kidding, kidding! I'm sure you'll do a fabulous job!
I'm gonna brainstorm and then I'll get back to ya.
Tara. My friend. I will be right there with you. I have to speak at church this Sunday too. I bet you're thinking, "hey, she just spoke". That is true. Mine is on, Having an eye single to the glory of God. Hmmm.... Good luck!
I wish I had some great tips for you! Talking in church is my biggest fear in life. I would call in dead. Yeah, tell them you died.
I emailed you. No guarentee it's going to be of use though. lol
Tara, I just wanted to tell you thank you for your comments and your prayers for Abigail. She's doing great. Thank you again!!

Good luck today :) You're going to show that congregation whose boss! :)
