Today is my day for posting...

We have been here, in our new ward now for 3 Sundays. Our first Sunday we met with the bishop after the block of meetings, so he could learn more about us. Well tonight a member of the bishopric called and asked if I could come down to the building, and to bring Mike if I could. So when Mike got home we headed down to the church, and I received a new calling...already. I was called to be the Mia Maid advisor. I am so excited!! I loved Primary, but I am ready for a change. Our first Sunday they called a whole new YW presidency, and tonight they called me and a new Beehive advisor. So everyone is new....did I say that I am so EXCITED!!
Next weekend is Youth Conference, and when I said that I would be willing to help if needed, they acted surprised. I also agreed to chaperon youth dances with Mike. The new YW president again acted so surprised at my willingness to help. Am I really that naive? Maybe people don't want to help. Not only do I want to be around the youth, I am in need of new friends, and who better than those you work with for a start?
