In With The New...

Our wonderful BYU married student ward has been dissolved. We have loved the experience of being in a BYU married student ward! When we moved to Utah, last June, we decided that we would go to a married student ward for at least a year and then we would talk about going to a family ward. In the meantime we just wanted to have a new experience. One month short of a year and our ward is dissolved. Whether we wanted to or not we were headed for a family ward. During sacrament, the Sunday I found out, I had been feeling that it was time for us to move on to a family ward. I feel like we are ready to serve in a family ward and we can learn and be served by others in a family ward. Sheehan took the picture above during the 5 BYU Stake conference at the Marriott Center on the BYU Campus. They made the official announcement of the reorganization of our married student stakes and wards. Our ward, the BYU 172nd ward, is being dissolved into 11 different ward including conventional family wards and reorganized married, student wards. We've loved the experience, the friends we've made, and the callings we've been able to serve in. Sheehan has been released as the Sunday School Presidency First Counselor and Elder Quorum 4th Sunday Teacher. I have been released as the Ward Historian, Ward Newsletter Specialist, and Visiting Teaching Supervisor. I wonder what callings we will serve in next...
