It was a great experience where she was given counsel and promised blessings. Her dad, mam, brother were there, as well as her Young Women's Leader and friend Jaymie Hansen, and good family friend Mitch Mosher.
You may be wondering - what does being "set apart mean?" We are set apart to focus our time and talents on a specific labor for the Lord (such as missionary service). Being set apart is a special event which may be accompanied by an outpouring of the spirit. The inspiration attending this ordinance may deepen our understanding, elevate our spirits and remind us of our possibilities, and motivate us to a higher, richer quality of life. When we are set apart, we also receive the right to obtain knowledge and inspiration to accomplish our assigned tasks. We prepare our minds to receive that counsel by following the commandments, praying, studying, and pondering the duties of our callings. We also have the right to receive special strength of body and spirit. By being set apart, we promise to consecrate a portion of our time and talents to magnify our callings. A calling to serve in the church, with the privileges and responsibilities conferred on us when we are set apart, is an opportunity for God to create in us a more Christlike mind, a purer heart, and a nobler spirit. All the He requires is our willingness to serve faithfully.
