This year our ward had Ward Camp. So we went to Provo, Utah and stayed in one of our leaders condos. It may not sound like camping....and we didn't sleep in tents, but everything that we did was amazing, and we couldn't have experienced what we did if we were camping out somewhere in the wilderness. We felt the spirit so strong everyday several times. It was an amazing girls camp, and one that I will never ever forget.
Here I am climbing Mount Timpanogos. It was a pretty strenuous 3 mile hike up to the caves. It was breathtaking, hard, and worth the climb. I did it! (Oops, I forgot to change the date on my camera...my bad!)
Here we are, we had just climbed Ensign Point.
The Warm Springs Ward Girls at Temple Square.
"This is the Place" where Brigham Young told the saints where the Lord wanted them to settle and build the Salt Lake Temple. Ensign Peak.
Just about to go down the Provo River with my bestie cousin Drew.
Warm Springs Ward girls and leaders about to go on an adventure down the river!
We visited The Relief Society Building on Temple Square where we went into the Young Women's Hall. This was a very spiritual experience. We also went into the Relief Society hall and viewed all the pictures of the past Relief Society Presidents. We also listened to Sister Mcconkie speak to us and tell us all about all the amazing women who gave their lives serving the Lord.
Here I am pulling a hand cart with Drew my cousin, just like the pioneers did. But our carts were empty. I cannot imagine pulling a cart full of supplies for hundreds of miles. We barely had to pulled these carts and it was hard! We visited Heritage Park where Pioneer homes were brought in for people to visit. We went from house to house and at each home there was a person that came out and portrayed one of the pioneers. They shared their stories and it really gave me such an appreciation of what the pioneers sacrificed and did. The spirit was strong, and I am so glad I was able to experience a little bit of what the pioneers went though.
