Nauvoo is about the Savior and the Saints who followed Him through a Prophet of God. It is a beautiful place of peace and you will be healed here. It would be such a wonderful experience for you to come feel and know for yourselves of the truth, in the way that God wants you to. Pray about when you should come and let me know how you feel, and what God says. You'd also love a Sacrament meeting full of missionaries on a Sunday. :)

I am able to go to the Temple here. The 40 new couples are adjusting. They, in their old age, are asked to perform every night for the plays and shows we put on here in Old Nauvoo. They are amazing and very tired, but God gives them ability to do what they are called to do.
All of my Nauvoo sisters did come back; they came home. It feels great to be here with them all.

President Condie is the President of the Nauvoo Temple here. He gave us a fireside that was just amazing! He was a member of the 70 and shared some stores from the Brethren. 

He shared a story about President Hinckley. One time, the King of New Zealand gave President Hinckley a big, beautiful hand carved bowl made from fancy, ancient wood from New Zealand. As a joke, when he received the gift, he picked it up, looked at the bottom of it and said aloud, "Made in China"... haha! It was so funny. I love to hear stories about the Brethren that have their personality in it.
