Today this popped up on facebook..
Elder Dallin Oaks...
I have spoken before about how we are not accustomed to speaking of women having the authority of the priesthood in their Church callings, but what other authority can it be?
When a woman—young or old—is set apart to preach the gospel as a full-time missionary, she is given priesthood authority to perform a priesthood function.
The same is true when a woman is set apart to function as an officer or teacher in a Church organization under the direction of one who holds the keys of the priesthood.
The March Ensign magazine includes an article titled “Connecting Daughters of God with His Priesthood Power” that discusses this issue. I invite you to take some time to study and reflect upon the teachings included in this article.... link

yesterday a friend dropped by and we talked about all of the changes that have happened! She and I both enjoy changes so we always have a good conversation! I was surprised when she shared that she, and her hubby, had long felt 2 hour meetings were needed and how to do them (just like they currently are!). I told her the thought had never once entered my mind but it is marvelous!!!

I'm thinking something monumental will happen at this next conference and it will impact we women! (us women?) Well, which ever way you slice your bread...you get my message!
