Be careful what you wish for!
Hi! As many of you know, being a Gospel Doctrine teacher has totally taken me out of my comfort zone. I start worrying about the next lesson (which may be 6 wks away) right after giving a lesson. We got a new Relief Society President last week, Stephanie Orison, and I get a call to see Brother Terry after church today. I'm thinking, they are going to add the calling of being choir president (Stephanie's previous calling, besides being in the Stake Young Womens presidency) to what I already do. I've been totally blown away with my last two callings as I had no idea that I would be chorister in Sacrament meeting or Gospel Doctrine teacher. So, I had kind of been praying that I would get a different calling and I would be happy with anything, but I didn't think I'd get out of my current calling for awhile. So, brother Terry asked if I would be a Laurel Advisor and all I could say, was, "Does this mean I get released from being a Gospel Doctrine teacher?" When he said Yes, I said "Yes!" and made the gesture with my fists. After awhile, it sunk in that I am going to be much busier than I was before, Sunday's and weekly meetings! And, I have always taught Beehives and they are usually so happy to be there. Laurels will be very challenging as I think there is a big group of girls and only a few active and most work. I guess I'm up to the challenge. Jenny Roberts is the Young Women president and I will enjoy working with her.
