During his October 08 closing remarks President Thomas S. Monson urged us to study and ponder the teachings from General Conference that will be published in the November Ensign and Liahona magazines (the transcripts will also be available online at lds.org ). Lets study together and help encourage each other in this study.Here is how the Pursuit of Excellence Challenge will work:
1. To be entered into the monthly drawing: Read a minimum of 4 talks each month.
2. To be entered in the Grand Prize Drawing and to complete the Pursuit of Excellence Challenge: Read all the talks from the April 09 Conference. And......3. Write at least one post or email (or as many as you feel inspired to do) about a favorite talk or talks, your general impressions, what you learned etc.
4. Once you have read all the talks for the month you can leave a comment or send me an e-mail and you will be entered to win some great prizes. Then we will have a monthly drawing for all who read at least 4 talks. Then we will have a Grand Prize for all who left a post or email and completed the challenge by reading ALL of the talks.
Do you accept our challenge? If yes, click on the list of participants at the right and leave your name.
Deadlines: To be entered into the grand prize drawing you must have all the talks read and leave a comment letting me know you read them all by October 1, 2009. I am really excited about this and hope you will all join me in this Pursuit of Excellence.

I decided to just finish the conference talks that we have been working on. Sooooo, I have read more than the four suggested for our reading assignment. This was a good way to get me to read the talks again. Very interesting how I picked up different guidance from the first read. I think it is where WE are at as to what strikes us as we read the talks.
Thanks.
