Elder Hallstrom went around the room shaking hands before the meeting. He asked the people where they were from and when he gave his talk, he made a point of telling about the many countries in the world that were represented there in the congregation. He said we're all brothers and sisters and we should embrace our differences. He told about his mission to England when he was a young man.

The Anjums had corresponded with Elder Hallstrom during the years they were seeking asylum from Pakistan. When they had the opportunity to meet him after the conference, he still remembered them.
They were absolutely thrilled to shake his hand and talk with him personally.
