The Hermana Conference

The conference was held at the Mission Home. The night before all 17 stayed at a hotel and giggled and laughed the whole night. Only twice a year do all the Hermanas get to be together as a total group.

The day started with a craft where they made little jewelry boxes, which were later filled with a pearl necklace, bracelet, and earrings. A gift from the Mission and a remembrance of the talk given by Sister Lindahl, Mission President's wife.










Next it was a tango demonstration. Very awesome, and we all got to learn to dance "elegantly" as the tango is an elegant dance. Our instructors were so much fun, and so graceful.

Hermanas can have fun! Just get them together and it starts.

It is a day of fun, and great inspirational talks, and lots and lots of wonderful food.

Anyone for a back massage? Two started and soon there was a whole chain.
I gave a talk on self Esteem and Health. I focused on "Bloom where you are planted".




Here we are! All the Hermanas of the Mision Mendoza, Argentina. Until next spring when we get to do this again.

Seeing all of those Sisters together brought back so many memories from my mission and serving at the VC. How did your talk go?

I love that saying, "Bloom where you are planted". It has such great meaning.
Well, it looks like one big girls night! What a total blast, I'm sure it was a great time!
