I woke up this morning and realized that I am really nervous about our first Family Home Evening at USP tomorrow. Nervous to the point of paralysis. Not knowing how many people I am going to have to prepare to feed just about does me in. If I make enough for twenty, twenty-one will show up. If I make more than enough, no one will show up. I so wish that worrying was a calorie burner. How wonderful it would be to lose weight every time I am worried.
It is the fifth Sunday today and we sat in a "State of the Ward" talk by Bishop Farpa'pau. We wanted to remember what he revealed and so I am going to reproduce it here.
At End of Goals for End of
2012 2013 2013
Melchizedek Priesthood 30 35 38
Aaronic Priesthood 9 16 16
Temple Rec. Holders 41 45 47
Couple Sealings 14 14 0
Missionaries 4 8 16
YSAs Attending Church 12 15 15
Convert Baptisms 4 8 16
Sacrement Attendance 107 120 185
Both Scott and I were just blown away by these statistics. Only in one category did we not meet the goals the Bishopbric set, and out of the eight goals, we exceeded them four times two by twice the original goal. Amazing. Our bishop is so wonderful. We are going to miss him when we go home.
