The *New* Mansfield 1st Ward

We met today as the *new* Mansfield 1st Ward. Two weeks ago the boundaries for most wards in our stake were redrawn. Today was the first chance to meet.

The children all have new Primary teachers. Paul had new nursery teachers and actually stayed in the class after I took him!! The first time since we started trying to take him at 17-1/2 months old. As for Shawnie, she still plays the piano for Primary and is an assistant for Activity Days.

I'm still Elders Quorum President. My two new counselors were sustained and set apart by the Stake President during priesthood meeting and most of the rest of the leadership callings were set forth today as well. The next big task for my new presidency is to work out the Home Teaching list. We've been tasked by the Bishop with keeping as many Home Teachers and the families they visit together. The Stake President spoke today about how we are not called to keep the status quo. The balancing act will happen this week!
