a new beginning

i know most of you heard my testimony in church the day i was released and you know that i really loved serving the families in our ward as the rs president. louann, elaine, and patty all gave me tons of love and support and anything that was accomplished was because of them. they were simply the best. i had the greatest sisters serving in the organization and i appreciate the effort that is made as all the sisters in rs work together to lift and support each other. you definately see things in a different perspective when you serve in a leadership position. i hope that someday...far far away (lol) that i'll have another chance to serve as a leader again (doesn't have to be the president, though, lol)

i am very excited about my new calling as a sunday school teacher for the 14-15 year olds in our ward. this past sunday was our first class and it couldn't have been better. i will be losing a few of the kids at the first of the year and that saddens me cause i'd hold on to them all if i could but there will be some new ones coming in too. i love to be with our youth and am grateful for the opportunity the Lord has given me to learn along with them. this is going to be a wonderful experience...i know it.

Glad to see you back on your blog!

You were an amazing RS pres, and you will be an amazing SS teacher! I guess you can't help it, 'cause you're just amazing that way! Sarah is very sad that she won't be there for most of your lessons.

New beginnings can be tough, but they are also wonderful opportunities!

Isn't it great that the Lord allows us to have different opportunities to serve? Since you have joined the church you have given 150% in all you have been asked to do. You are an amazing woman and I KNOW your ss class will love having you just as much as you will love teaching them.
Oh, and I love to see you blogging again, too.
