You know in all honesty if I was just called if plans changed or things are running over it wouldn't bug me so much (It would at least allow me some control over the matter, and feel I was part of a solution). I just think if an agreed upon schedule was made and both the callings became our callings things would be easier. Leaving me out of the loop or telling me I'll be home when we are done just isn't right. There is no easy solution but I can tell you from my perspective its not because I don't support my wife, or want her to not have a calling. Its a lack of courtesy, balance and communication that gets me all crazy. Although I am sure to her she sees it differently. As far as discussing things to get released I would talk to the RS President, she is the one that calls sisters to their posts. The Bishop only does the interview and signs off on the calling. Maybe she can help you fulfill your calling in a different manner instead of getting released. You know I think maybe some of the problems stems from us men, some of us have the mentality that we give so much of the church already, why do they have to take my wife also.

I'm in the same type of situation. However I will give you all the point of view from a male side. I am supportive of my wife. However when it comes to her calling I get very frustrated. She is a wonderful mother and is pretty good to me except when it comes to what she wants to do and church. She is in the RS presidency while I am the EQ President. Both are busy callings but I however make an effort to not say yes to everything and make sure my wife is ok with things we are planning and I plan well ahead for anything that may take more time from me. It seems like the RS runs around disorganize and/or is always running behind so a one hour meetings always runs 2 hours or more. Which means I am having to do much more then my share in the family duties. Along with that the only day we can hang out together is on Sunday, and her presidency insists on doing everything on Sunday (ie. meetings, visiting teaching, ext.). I feel very disrespected and I've pleaded with her many times to please get control of the situation since it is really straining on us. Nothing has worked so far and I am getting to the point where I want her to get released. It makes me feel horrible as a husband and she always throws it in my face that I said yes when they asked me. Well I said yes cause I thought there would be understanding and respect, but I have yet to see any. Anyways hope you ladies understand that it goes both ways. QuorumPrez

I wouldn't feel ashamed. All of us are sinners or have problems of some sort. Our Judge in Israel is there to help us reconnect with Heavenly Father and get our lives in order to receive his blessings. Don't let the little things get in your way of what you feel is right in your heart. Coming back from many years of inactivity was the best decision I have made. QuorumPrez

Sounds cool. Wish we were able to do things like that. Having a temple close to home is truly a blessing.

Yes we are back up and running great now. As you can see the site has picked up considerably. QuorumPrez

You mean http://www.mormonapologetics.org/blog/pa_pa/

Which Temple in Texas? We have a difficult time getting into ours. We can't even do group endowment sessions to it. Are you the cause!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Good questions. We can seperate those questions to two different topics. The Word of Wisdom which would answer your first question and Kolob and Pearl of Great Price can be a second topic. If you want to start them that would be great. Perhaps you have specifics or want some misconceptions cleared up?

I split the Topic where deblldo asked her questions. you can continue the discussion over there. I hope this helps you our deblldo. If you have more questions feel free to start more topics.

Thats Ok at least your dreams are cool and you didn't have a nightmare about being released from your current calling then called to be on the high council. I woke up sweating like crazy. Our stake is redoing its boundaries and wards are going to be totally different so I'm wondering if I will be released or kept on as QuorumPrez for the new ward.

:sparklygrin: K I did a search for it and found it I think.

Ill make you all a deal I will put some of your favorites if you all can give me links to them. I can them download them to this server. Just start a thread in general chat and Ill keep an eye on it for what you all need. QuorumPrez

I'm working on getting more smilies, or at least changing the ones we have. Thank you for advertising this board with your friends. We really want this board to be around a very long time, and we understand that the posters are the ones that are going to make this place what we hope it can become.

You are in good company here. I will tell you what I tell my Quorum members. We are all on different journeys back to Heavenly Father. Everyone is at their own level. None of us should judge one another because we may be at a different level spiritually then the person sitting next to us. It's not a contest, everyone must find their own way, that is why we Heavenly Father gave us agency. Our job as members is to help those that want to be helped and to love those that chose differently then we do. Good luck on your journey, QuorumPrez
