WEEKLY FOCUS
Getting to know your Sacramento Presenters!  I'd like to introduce you to 2 of your Friday night presenters.  Dean Hughes & Heidi Swinton.

PRESENTER HIGHLIGHT: HEIDI SWINTON
As the biographer of President Monson's Biography, Heidi shares some of the best insight to our Latter-Day prophet. And she is darling and fun all at the same time!
  

PRESENTER HIGHLIGHT: DEAN HUGHES
Dean Hughes is known for his great Fiction.  But what he'll teach you at TOFW is full of TRUTH!  You'll love his way of teaching and even entertaining a little.
