Responsibility for the Young Women

I had served as the Primary President for about 6 months when a new Young Women’s President was called. She joined us in Ward Council where a a discussion took place about which priesthood quorum’s turn it was to walk the sisters from the assisted living facility next door to the church building. Our ward rotated this responsibility each month between the High Priests Group, Elder’s Quorum, and Young Men’s quorums. The next month, the Young Women were added to the rotation. As I pulled into the church parking lot that week, I couldn’t help but smile as I saw the sweet young women in our ward visiting cheerfully with these sisters as they pushed their wheelchairs down the street to church. They were blessed by an opportunity to serve and by their leader’s ability to recognize the opportunity.
