David Archuleta

So on Thursday we had an amazing fireside!We had been told about a while before, but we weren't told who the "mysterious famous" speaker would be because they didn't want more people coming than they had room for. So of course everyone was guessing and joking around about who it would be. Arianna guessed that it could be David Archuleta and IT WAS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! He and Kendra Lowe (I hope I spelled her name right!), the pianist in his band, came and spoke and performed. It was soooooooooooooooooooo cool. Sister Lowe spoke about spiritual gifts and developing them. She had an amazing testimony. Then David Archuleta sang a Primary song, We'll Bring The World His Truth. He has an amazing voice!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Then he told us that the Stake President had asked that he not do his regular fireside, that he just "speak from his heart" He was really nervous!! But it was awesome. He spoke about how he came to like music and his whole experience withe performing. He touched on so many things, divine identity, blessings, trials, and also spiritual gifts. It was an amazing talk. I really really enjoyed it. The Spirit was definitely there. Afterward we were able to wait in line to have a picture with hi. Unfortunately we didn't have time to talk to him but oh well. It was an amazing night.
I will post the picture as soon as we get it (A photographer took the pictures, No private cameras were allowed)
