Callings

Three and a half years ago, when I was called to serve as Primary President, I thought to myself – It doesn’t get any worse than this. I truly thought the Bishopric was crazy! (Just being honest.)

I was wrong on both counts. It was one of the most rewarding callings that I have ever had. I wanted to stay there forever.
I knew that was impossible (and selfish) and  when I was released , I thought to myself – It doesn’t get any worse than this. I truly thought the Bishopric was crazy!

Flash forward to today.

I was sustained as a Relief Society teacher. I am now thinking – It doesn’t get any worse than this. The Bishopric IS crazy!
However, I was also set apart as the Transition Specialist (helping the Young Women transition into Relief Society) as well.
It’s a great big band-aid that helps with the sting of a calling that puts me so FAR out of my comfort zone. I am hopeful that the two callings will go hand in hand, that I will be able to gear my attention and messages to the wonderful YW.

As for the sister’s in Relief Society, my sincere apologies.
Please be patient, understanding, forgiving and FORGETFUL!!
