New Callings

Lauren and I finished up our calling up at the University Care Center Branch about a month ago and are officially members of the Oquirrh 2nd Ward again. The branch has been such a great calling, visiting patients and taking them the sacrament (and having 30 minute sacrament meetings). We've been wondering what is in store for us now. After much worrying that we'd be called to the Nursery again, we are finally able to relax (a little). Nursery would have been fine, but after a year there, we were hoping for something a little different. We got it.

We have been called to teach the 12/13 year old Sunday School class.

Wish us luck...
