Two days after speaking in general conference, Sister Amy A. Wright addressed missionaries at the Provo MTC last night. Here is my article. (And while there, I hugged my neighbor who is now a senior sister missionary in training.) https://t.co/9ToRaQN22n

A couple always sat by me and my five children when my husband was bishop. They are our forever friends from that service.

“Discipleship is a deliberate journey that we take to become transformed through the Lord’s atoning sacrifice and His enabling power.” -Elder Michael B. Strong #GeneralConference
