My Face is Famous

I had a surprise today. I called a woman in my Church congregation that I don’t know very well to remind her about something. To my surprise, she said, “Oh, I was thinking about you today.” ? That struck me as strange. Awkwardly, I said, “Oh . . . really?” It turned out that she had seen a picture of Amelia and I in the General Conference issue of the Ensign (LDS Church magazine) and she assumed that I knew about the picture already.

I was astonished. If I want to review conference, I usually read the talks online or listen on the internet, but if I had been reading the Conference issue of the Ensign, I think I would have flipped right past that picture without even noticing it. So, anyway, for those of you who have the November issue, see page 101. Unfortunately, the picture doesn’t appear in the online version as far as I can tell, so I can’t post it here.

    I was just looking at your blog and came across this post. I immediately reached for the Ensign on the end table beside me and saw your picture page 101. What a great photo! Thanks for sharing. You are indeed famous! I was in a church video once when I was 17. A couple of years later, a friend of mine serving a mission in New York, said he saw the video in his ward out there. The same video was listed as a possible resource in a lesson manual I was teaching from once. So I pulled out the video in the priests’ quorum and played it for them without telling them I was the main character. They all laughed so hard when my 17-year old face showed up on the screen!
