Yesterday at church Trevor got a new calling, well sort of. He was released as the first counselor in the Elders Quorum presidency and then recalled to the same position under a new President. He worked with Jason Jones as president and Russell Hale as second counselor for several years. Now, he gets to work with Brian Reiter as president and Brother Call as second counselor, and he is excited. A little bit ago he commented to me that he felt like he was finally understanding what his calling was and that he was going to get to work closely with Brother Reiter... and then this happened. Brother Reiter told Trevor that he had the same feeling back in January, amazing.
When Trevor was set apart, the blessing talked a lot about temples, that there would be peace in the home while he was away, and they he would be able to organize himself. Temples were probably part of 70% of the setting apart. He has now committed to going to the temple once a week. I love it when a new calling comes, it is like a breathe of fresh air and one is motivated to do things they weren't before. I know Trevor will do a great job and that with each calling it improves him, our family and life in general. Being in the service of our God really is the way to happiness of any kind, temporal, spiritual and eternal.
Before the setting aparts our Stake President said something that is so true. The church brings us together for eternity and separates us for mortality... with callings, illnesses, and such.

He will do great! Steve was put in as ward clerk and yesterday was my first Sunday without him here to help me because he was at meetings. I missed him. But your right they really are such a blessing:) Yesterday at church I was really missing the girls in my Burley ward!
