I'm feeling very blessed, and know that my Heavenly Father loves me, and has a plan for me and my family. He is aware of my needs, and the desires of my heart. He knows my potential, now it's high time for me to see my potential, and all the things that my Heavenly Father has in store for me.
I was just called in March to be the new Primary President in our Ward. For those who may not be a member of my faith, Primary is the organization in our church for children ages 18 months-11 years old, I have been called to lead the teachers of the classes, and to look over the children in our ward.
The Purpose of Primary is to teach children the gospel of Jesus Christ and help them learn to live it.
The objectives of Primary are to:
*Teach children that they are children of God and that Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ love them.
*Help children learn to love Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ.
*Help children prepare to be baptized, to receive the Holy Ghost, and to keep their baptismal covenants.
*Help children grow in their understanding of the gospel plan and provide opportunities for them to live gospel principles.
*Help boys prepare to receive the priesthood and be worthy to use this power to bless and serve others.
*Help girls prepare to be righteous young women, understand the blessings of the priesthood and the temple, and serve others
I feel so blessed to be given this calling, to work with the children of the church. I know that many callings in the church are pure inspiration from a higher power. I know I was called by God, as were my counselors & secretary. I am in awe of the women that I get to work with, I truly love them already and know that we have an amazing job a head of us. I'd be lying if I said I was screaming for joy upon receiving the call, to be honest I was very emotional, and didn't feel worthy to be working with these children of God, these sweet spirits. Through much prayer and faith, I knew that the calling was for me at this time, and that I would be greatly blessed.
With God I know I can do anything, all things are possible!
I will be posting periodically about my Primary experiences, things I'm learning, thoughts & feelings, as well as Primary themes, songs, & scriptures.
I want to take everyone back to Primary with me...:)
