This weekend is a jumping off point for a stretch about three months long of intense responsibilities for me, all regarding my calling in the Stake Young Women's presidency. It is a challenging calling, but it comes with great rewards.
The camping trip was the kick off, then last night our stake hosted the Brand New Year event--that is happening worldwide from about 2 weeks ago through the end of next week--and we had food assignments for that. This morning I have a meeting for our Stake YW Winter Camp. The Bishops in each ward will host a fireside to conclude the "BNY" event tonight. Then Tuesday begins a series of six "pre-conference" visits with each of our wards in the stake, prior to their ward conferences, which begin in two weeks, and we also attend each of those and teach during that meeting. In between all that, YW basketball begins on Saturday and we are also attending all 6 New Beginnings activities in the next four or five weeks. Mix in a few Trek committee meetings on Sunday mornings at 7 AM and regular presidency meetings and you have a good idea of what I am facing.
I don't tell you this because I am complaining. Frankly, I know the Lord called me to this, again, and I don't doubt this is where I am suppose to serve in the church at this time. But there is much to do and much to keep track of for the next few weeks.
I guess I can call it job security, right? At least I can declare my level of commitment as FULL.

Sounds like you may need a few lunch breaks in there somewhere! It's a service I'm willing to do :)
Winter camp? I have never heard of that. What do you do for that? You sure sound busy. I think callings have busy and slow times. Have you had slow times?
