Yesterday I was sustained as the young women's president at church. For those of you who aren't familiar with the LDS church, that means that I lead, along with my counselors, the girls ages 12-18 in general with a focus on girls 16-18. Previously I was in the presidency as 2nd counselor over the 12 and 13 year olds (Morgan's group).
Working with these girls has always been fulfilling for me and I have always tried to give 110% to everything I do there. The previous presidency I was in all served these girls faithfully, but in the months prior to this new position the previous president and I knew there would be a change coming and found it so difficult to keep the momentum going, not knowing when we were going to be released and for me, if I was even going to remain in Young Women's at all. By the time I was called I was ready for the change. Though I will deeply miss Maureen who became one of my closest friends and confidants, I know that this is what Heavenly Father wants me to do and appreciate the women who where called to serve with me.
After months of so-so effort, I'm grateful for this fresh start. A chance to renew my motivation and to serve these girls again to the best of my ability.
