Baptismal date, do you remember?
by Jourles inyesterday was my 15th year anniversary of being baptized.
may 11, 1991. i'm not sure it counts anymore since i was df'd last feb. 3, 2005, but still, it is a remarkable period of time to pass by and reflect on what changes have occurred.. i was 18 years old.
the "internet" was barely a blip.

How did you get out of sitting through the Convention?
by Confucious in.
someone else wrote a good thread about the naughtiest thing you've ever done at a convention.. ok... what did you do to "legally" get out of your chair?.
for me, it was easy, because i got to volunteer at some desk so i had 'permission' to be walking around in the hallways.

i think round the time i got baptised there were around 14,000 in attendance.. theres footage of the convention, there footage of us volunteers early in the morning making sandwhiches in our gorgeous cloth hats and aprons, and then theres my baptisim,.
sure brought back a lot of memories.

Special Field Service Campaign at DA
by limbogirl ini have this memory of going to a da back in the mid to late seventies -- i was about 8 years old -- and there was a special field service campaign.
seems to me that one of the assembly days was shortened and everyone was given a service kit -- some tracts in a plastic bag -- and everyone was to go out and preach for the remainder of the afternoon.
i remember going with my dad to get in line to pick up the bag of tracts and then going into the neighborhood around the stadium to witness.

Vicodin, the not so innocent addiction
by free2beme inwith the thing that happened with kennedy today, it got me to thinking about how many people i know who are addicted to vicodin.
they always think it is no big deal, as it is not meth, or any other well known and notorious drugs.
plus, in their mind, they label what they take as okay as it is not listed as illegal and doctors do give out the prescription.
