What Did the Prophet Ask Us to Do?

What did the prophet ask us to do in the October, 2014 conference?  Here's what I gathered from the four talks that President Monson gave:

Saturday Morning Session
We encourage all worthy and able young men to serve a mission.
Give your attention to the brethren and sisters who will participate in conference.

Priesthood Session
"Please, before you put yourself and your priesthood in jeopardy by bv adventuring into places or participating in activities which are not worthy of you or of that priesthood, pause to consider the consequences."
"Be an example;  be an influence for good."

Sunday Morning Session
Be merciful, be humble, be righteous be pure in heart, be peacemakers
Stand up bravely for our beliefs
Let our lights shine
Be morally clean
Lay up treasures in heaven rather than on earth.
Go to the rescue of those who have left the path and have lost their way.
Ponder the path of thy feet.

Sunday Afternoon Session
May we return to our homes with a resolve in our hearts to be a little better than we have been in the past.
May we be a little kinder and more thoughtful.
May we reach out in helpfulness, not only to our fellow members but also to those who are not of our faith.  As we associate with them, may we show our respect for them.
Let us extend our concern to those who are struggling, as well as lend a helping hand.
May we remember the elderly and those who are homebound.  As we take time to visit them, they will know that they are loved and valued.
Succor the weak, lift up the hands which hang down and strengthen the feeble knees.
Be a people of honesty and integrity, trying to do the right thing at all times and in all circumstances.
Be faithful followers of Christ, example of righteousness.
Ponder the truths we have heard.

I love that you do this! I need to be reminded and it brings back the wonderful Spirit I felt as I listened to conference!
