Sadly, the exact opposite has happened for my ward. Instead of highly involved and spiritual conversations like we used to have, we are back to the un-involved boring lectures by the new quorum presidency... no one interacts, no one participates, it's mind numbing... sigh. This is exactly why I was excited to move into HP - to get away from the dead-pan, un-interesting lectures by someone trying to impress everyone else on their knowledge and preparation. Afraid the change has been a disaster for us, attendance continues to drop every week.
