We got called in to meet with the Stake President on Sunday August 11th and Ben got called to be the 1st Counselor in the new bishopric! We were pretty surprised but excited to serve. The next Sunday we were supposed to be coming home from the wedding in CA but we came home early so that we could be there for the calling, sustaining, setting apart and everything that happened that Sunday the 18th. Ben was ordained to the office of High Priest! It was great to be there and it feels like the perfect calling at this time!

Ben will be serving with Bishop Jared Mitchell and Adam Harris and Dana Stott. He and Adam were the Tecahers Quorum Leaders so they got to fulfill that calling a few more weeks while they got new leaders in place. Here they are at TibbleFork with the YM.

I’m also getting released since Melinda had to get released. It took 3 weeks but they just got Kim to be the new president and I handed my things off to Holly, and Lori and Sherry. I loved serving in the RS Presidency. My favorite part was getting to know and visit with some women in the ward thtat I hadn’t even really met. And I loved getting to know BOTH of my presidencies! I love those ladies a lot. So I’m callingless for now and trying to capitolize on my ministering assignments and MOTHERING.
