First up is Sister Joy D. Jones - Primary President. She was the only woman to speak during the main GC sessions last April. And her talk was super fear monger-ey about how Satan is trying to steal your kids and you have to control and/or manipulate your kids so they will chose the right. Incase you repressed it, here it is: https://www.lds.org/general-conference/ ... n?lang=eng
I did find some cool stuff about her on the church website:
As a young adult, Sister Jones worked as a dispatcher for the U.S. Forest Service at the Redmond Air Center in eastern Oregon, sending out smokejumpers, suppression crews and supplies for forest fires in the northwest, and as an administrative assistant at the Federal Building in Provo. She was also trained as a medical assistant and worked at a dermatology clinic in Provo.
Next up is Bonnie H. Cordon - 1st counselor for Primary. This is actually kind of fascinating from the church bio on her:
She was a working mother until she was expecting her third child and she and her husband relocated to Indiana. “I put all my corporate clothes back in my closet and put on my peanut butter and jelly clothes,” she said. After a move to Boise, Idaho, she jumped back into the business world, starting her own business.
I was kind of surprised to read that. I hope she can show some compassion for working mothers. Also, I wonder what business she started?
Her talk last April was the one with the story about the poor sister going through chemo. This poor sister was very sick and discouraged and when she turned to her husband for help; her husband said she needed to serve people more. I swear I'm not making this sh!t up : https://www.lds.org/general-conference/ ... t?lang=eng
And then we have Sister Cristina B. Franco - 2nd counselor for Primary. She was born and raised in Buenos Aires, Argentina. That's a ways from the Morridor. Here is a surprising snippet from her bio:
No talks from her yet. She seems interesting.After graduating from high school in 1977, she moved to Utah with her family, where her father continued his career as a watchmaker. This turned into a successful family business that specialized in fixing and selling watches, a company that Sister Franco was a part of for 28 years. She worked in the family business when her sons were at school and received the support of her parents when long hours kept her from being home, but she always kept her children’s spiritual nurturing a priority: “We made scripture study each morning a must before they left to school,” she said.
Maybe they are just clones manufactured in the basement of the COB. The bios on lds.org are just a cover up. It looks like they liked Jones so much they just copied and pasted to make Cordon.
