Changes....
I have a lot on my mind right now and have had for the past 3 weeks. Yesterday I got sustained as our ward's Young Women's President! And I am FREAKING OUT! What a huge responsibility and time commitment. It's been years since I have been in the organization, so I have a lot to learn about what I need to do. I have never been the president of anything, so I feel very inadequate, to say the least. It's definitely been a roller coaster these past few weeks trying to find counselors that will accept. It seems like just when I start feeling a little better about the calling, something new comes up that I am supposed to be doing and I stress out again. Thanks to everyone that has given encouragement and support, especially my wonderful husband, who will be taking on a few more responsibilities himself, with me being gone more. I welcome any suggestions anyone has for camp, activities, lessons, etc. because I know many of you have much more experience in this area than I have. So feel free to give me a call, but you might get an earful while I vent some frustration!

I think you'll be a great YW president.
ReplyDeleteI think you are a good leader, you will do a great job!
ReplyDeleteWow! I know that can be totally overwhelming, but I know that you will be great! It fits you. Don't worry if you don't get the hang of it right away, it takes time. Start by learning the little things and then little by little it will start to click. Don't worry, everyone feels that same way when you get a new calling. Or at least I do! I still feel like I don't know anything about being a cubscout master! But it gets easier with time.
ReplyDeletethanks for all your encouraging words! I am feeling a little better about it today. I get set apart tonight, so we will see how that goes and then tomorrow I am off to a Combined YW/YM hike up Ensign Peak! I can handle all the stuff I don't have to plan!
