Callings

Callings- a word that most of us dread hearing.


Callings can be great, but not all callings are right for everyone

A few months ago I was called as a primary teacher, I was so nervous for this calling. I didn't feel comfortable in this calling, I feel as I needed to learn a lot more, and I was enjoying going to Sunday school, we had just started D&C which I had never read.
My husband is not really active at this time and was not good with the idea of having me teach, (he knew i didn't feel comfortable with this calling) 
Well I talked to my bishop and decided to give it a shot.
I did give it a shot, with an open mind and sincere heart (Moroni reference) :)
I didn't enjoy being in primary, I was with 5 year old girls, and all we did the majority of the class was sat and colored.
I was what the missionaries called a "golden investigator" I soaked up everything they taught me and continued to learn more on my own.
Sitting in primary was not where I wanted to be.

We have recently moved to a new house, and so I am no longer in that calling anymore.
Just remember, don't let anyone force you to do something you aren't ready for.

First Calling

 

Sunday after relief society they asked me if I would co teach primary! I am so excited for this calling, and I think it will be great for me. On Sunday I will be set apart as a teacher and be given my manual. The primary president is supposed to call me and I am still waiting to hear from her. If anyone has any tips for teaching primary it would be appreciated. I am super nervous as I never attended primary as a child, but I am also so excited!!
