Two weeks ago I received a new calling- Ward Activities Chair. I've known since the end of September about this calling, but the Bishopric waited until after the Primary Program in October to release me from the Primary Presidency. I was in Primary for two years, and I have to admit I am very sad to not be there anymore.
For my initiation, I had two weeks to plan our ward's big annual Thanksgiving Dinner. Lucky for me, I have a wonderful husband who helped me with everything, including sorting through 100 lbs. of potatoes and other food to give to members to help make for the dinner. I also owe many, many nights of babysitting to Holly and Chris who helped in the kitchen during the whole dinner and helped clean up. Not to mention Chris's mom, Linda, my wonderful friend Donna, and the three members of my committee that were involved, and all the other people who made the food and helped clean the cultural hall. From what I hear, the dinner was a hit so that makes the work all worth it. Even though it sounds like a huge project, it really went pretty smoothly and I wasn't stressed because of all the great people that helped out. I am very grateful for helping hands!
