I received a new calling in our ward.
Young Women's President.
Things I know about the Young Women's program...
Besides the obvious stuff
and the stuff I know because I once was a young woman
forever ago...
Nothing!
I am excited for the chance to serve with Brooklyn.
I am excited about the sisters I have called to serve with me.
They are AWESOME!!
I am excited to serve with the other young ladies in our ward.
I am nervous beyond belief.
Nervous about teaching the Sunday lessons
and about them being what the girls are used to.
Nervous about being organized enough.
Nervous about helping to plan fun activities with purpose.
Nervous about memorizing the Young Women Theme.
And to top it all off...
nervous about finishing up all the details for camp on time and starting all this.
I was the camp director and my assistant also got a new calling on Sunday...
The Relief Society President.
Hmmmm.... I think we are both going to be pretty busy for the next few weeks.
If you are reading this...?
You are probably good friend or family.
I am always open to advice, ideas and suggestions.
Share the wealth if you will.

You'll do a great job :) Not that that helps at all, but when I heard you got called, I just thought you'd be PERFECT for the job. I was the YW secretary a few wards ago, and the only thing I remember is that the girls seemed to eat a LOT more than I thought they would at camp!!
I have to say, best of luck!!! YW was not really my cup of tea - I like primary a lot more.... it's nice that I work tuesday/wednesday evenings most semesters so I can be pretty sure I will stay there a long time :) But - I love the positive attitude you have about the new calling, and I really do think you'll do great!!! I will miss you in primary!!!!
So happy for you! You'll be a fastastic leader...after all you were trained well in your youth!
Ah you will be fabulous!! I wished I had little girls that would be there. The best training you have is having two daughters yourself :) So excited to be back in the ward here soon! One year down, one to go! I really miss that ward!
WOO HOO!I'm totally excited for you! You know I love working in YW's and I know you will too because of camp and basketball etc. If you have questions at any time call or text me. It's going to be awesome. Advice? Read the handbook frequently. Study the handbook in your presidency meetings and study the handbook with the girls in class presidency meetings. That comes from the 1st presidency not just me. You're going to be great.
You'll do an awesome job! Good luck with the next few weeks!
