Our Midland RS Presidency

Our Secretary, Pam sent me a pic that was taken at our Ward Christmas Party early in December. It was fun to have a picture of the ladies I serve with. The Christmas party went well, and we had all been there for hours when this was taken. Pam was in charge of the planning and food and she and her husband did a great job getting everything together and done. We all worked at the food tables and in the kitchen and then of course the kitchen clean-up. A lady in the ward had set up this fun photo booth for family pics, so we all went in and got our picture taken together.

These ladies are amazing. I love serving with them as we strive to do what is best for our sisters here in Midland. I am learning lots from them and hope we can continue to work as a team for the best possible results in our ward. Jenny (a Texas native) reminds me so much of my Tawna. She is serving on the local PTA, as RS President and working part-time. All this in addition to  her family as wife and mother of 4. She rolls with what I term as "her hair on fire" all the time and gets so much accomplished. The same can be said of our Homemaking Counselor Holly (originally from Utah) with her 3 kids and all her responsibilities. Holly is also my Visiting Teaching partner and it is really fun to go out with her and teach our 3 ladies. She calls and makes the appointments and I usually do a treat. Sometimes she does a lesson and sometimes I do. She always makes sure they get their treat if we miss them somehow. She keeps me on track so I can at last say I do my visiting teaching. Pam (originally from Idaho) and I are the "empty nesters" but are the two who love our computers and have those skills. She is a wonderful Secretary and keeps us all organized. She and her sweetie do BBQ's and their skills are amazing. They did all the food for the Christmas Party and it was so very tasty. She put together a Relief Society directory for our ward complete with photos of each sister. Wow. That has been a wonderful tool to get to know the faces and names of our ladies here. I serve as Education Counselor and I think I am the one being educated. We are a good team and rely on our various talents to make the whole thing work for everyone.

It is a pleasure to know such wonderful ladies who are so dedicated to their callings.
I could learn a thing or two from them.
