New Calling

So about a month ago now, they started the first ever Young Single Adult Branch here in the Verde Valley. Its a really exciting thing, history making almost! ;) Tanner and I have been going to the Branch since it started, and it has been such a great experience. It is a very small branch, not many members yet, but we are starting to feel like a small family. There is such a wonderful Spirit that is there every Sunday, I love it. The Presidency they have called to be over us is phenomenal! I love each one of them!

A few weeks ago I got a phone call from President Stokes saying that he wanted to meet with me. I was immediately like...."oh crap"! hehe I got extended the call to be the first councilor in the Relief Society Presidency. Then I really thought "oh crap"!!! I honestly never thought that I was....good enough I guess....for this kind of calling. I guess I was wrong. It has been a very overwhelming calling, but such an amazing experience for me. It really has shown me how inspired this church is. No mortal man could have come up with all the aspects of this church and Gospel, it is such a testimony builder! I am finding it very difficult, and feel so under qualified, its not even funny!! I am learning, and that is a great blessing!

Proof that the Lord knows what we need, I have also made friends with this calling. That is one of the biggest blessing of all. I am so grateful for the friends that I have made!

I have spent a lot of time in prayer, and know that I will spend even more time in prayer! I know that if I give all I have, the Lord makes up the difference.....whom the Lord calls he qualifies.  So here we go!
