Thinking back at the week of Convention, I recall all the good times I had. Every day was full of plans.
Monday night’s hayride was very exciting, also rowdy. Tuesday night we went to the Grand Roller Rink for skating. Although Wednesday we were supposed to go to the beach, and it rained, we still had fun bowling. We went to the beach the following day. After the banquet and speech Thursday, we went to Arne’s Funland for more fun.
The Convention theme “All Whom I Have Chosen’’ was a good subject since many young people do not know the many duties of missionaries. The purpose for this theme is to teach us our personal responsibilities toward missionary work. Our duty begins in the home where we live a careful, godly life.
The theme song “I Will Sing of My Redeemer” reminds us of the pain Christ went through to free us lost sinners.
I think this Convention was well run, yet I miss the lively singing we did last year. Conventions give us the opportunity to meet friends and renew old friendships.
I’d like to thank God for giving us the opportunity for having a convention, and also thank the chaperones, the Hudsonville societies, the speakers, and everyone involved for the good time they gave us.
