I hope by caliber you mean such a good servant.

That is exactly what I mean!  I really doubt you are a slow learner either.  I was just kidding about that.  I think it is just the way it works.  Those of us who are willing to do what the Lord asks will bear the burdens of those who don't.  90% of the work is done by 10% of the people.  The reward is worth it though.

It is interesting that you should say this because I know they will not leave me alone here for long, but honestly I need a break so I can get other things in order in my life. I think leaders have to understand that new blood can serve just as well, if not better, than the experienced ones.

Without a Call? Studies Doctrine Mormon

Right now I have no calling and I'm waiting to see for how long I would love to have a calling in my branch as a teacher, I enjoy so much preparing lessons and sharing the Gospel.

This message comes from a different angle, it is not about accepting a call or magnifying it, but in being the person that extends the call... and choosing the right person.

I have noticed a tradition, and I believe I am using the correct word: 'tradition', I am almost sure of it, but of course this is all my opinion and there is much room for discussion, however, I feel that most calls are given on the basis of who is more friendly, rich, known, etc. I sincerely believe that if I were to find a person to fill a call or serve as a Counselor to me I would first ask... who does their home teaching consistently? Then... that would be the man... even if he were not articulate, or have a particular 'look', because for sure he is an example and no one can hold him accountable.

The longest calling is the one I have right now, 1st Assistant in the High Priest Group. Going on about 2.5 years. Unless you count Home Teching as a calling. In that case, it's been 32 years and counting. I don't ever remember being without a calling, except for when we've moved and it takes the new ward a couple of weeks to call us to something. I have no complaints, as long as they don't call me to be Bishop.

Gaucho, you've probably jinxed yourself now.

My only calling has been on the Relief Society Enrichment committee, and I was released from that a little over a week ago. Who knows what I'll get next!

I was called as the Home and Enrichment Leader. I really enjoy planning the lessons for the sisters, this month I'm planning in having a project about Book of Remembrances!. This will be lots of fun.

I'm currently without a call... It's weird, I produced the Sunday programs for over two years, and it's odd to have my Saturday mornings "off"... Although I did mention to my new bishop that I would be interested in serving as Single Adult rep
