Wanna Hear A Funny Story?

So last Sunday I went to the monthly Stake Leadership Meeting for all the presidencies(Relief Society and Elders Quorum). It's at 7:00am every 2nd Sunday, and all I have to say is it's that I struggle at times to get there sometimes especially when, like last Sunday, it was snowing outside. Anyway, I went and got there on time with the rest of the presidency...and this months meeting was actually really good.

One of the things that we talked about or was drilled into us is the growing prevalence of cell phones at church. Not really that they are at church but that they are ringing during meetings. We discussed the importance of being reverent and respectful during church etc. So when I came home from the meeting I made a point to tell Leslie that we shouldn't take our cell phones to church anymore or at least turn them off.

We got to church, again I reminded Leslie to turn her cell off. The meeting began and all was well...until... the sacrament was being passed, and guess who's cell phone went off? If you guessed Leslie's you're wrong, it was MINE! I had texted Jenny like 2 hours earlier and she was just getting back to me...thanks Jenny. I guess with all the hubbub of the day I had completely forgotten my cell phone. For the record I have always been really good at turning off my phone in church and this was the FIRST time it has ever rung in church. I can laugh(a lot) about it now, but at the time I'm sure my face was completely red. I've resolved to not take my cell to church anymore;)
