General Conference just just ended and we decided to look to see what some of the best tweets were this go-round. There were plenty of funny/touching/inspiring/angry/spiritual/profound/pointless tweets out there. Here are some of our favorite moments that I hope we all experienced.
1. When we found Elder Bednar’s twin
