MarginOfError Posted January 5, 2012 Report Posted January 5, 2012 Simple game: Imagine that the church forms the LDS.net ward and calls you as bishop. Who do you choose to be your counselors? Relief Society president? Young men president? Since we're in fantasy land, you may feel free to ignore gender when placing people in callings. You may also adhere to the traditional structure if you like. Heck, if you want, go ahead and make two posts and mix and match! Bishop: MOE Counselors: Dravin, Vort Clerk: Loudmouth_Mormon Exec Sec: Suzie EQ Pres: Godless HPGL: John doe Primary Pres: Eowyn Primary Music Leader: mormonmusic RS Pres: Pam Sunday School Pres: Gwen YM Pres: FunkyTown YW Pres: Either Jenamarie or Maureen. I can't decide. Quote
FunkyTown Posted January 5, 2012 Report Posted January 5, 2012 In every ward I've ever been in - That's five - I have been called to Young Men's President whenever the Bishop gave me a calling, MOE. You're not the only one. I would call: Bishop's First Counselor: Snow Bishop's Second Counselor: John Doe Elder's Quorum President: Pam Relief Society President: Vort YM President: Moe, purely out of a sense of vengeance. YW President: Suzie Primary President: Moe again. Make ME YM President, will you. Quote
Suzie Posted January 5, 2012 Report Posted January 5, 2012 (edited) This is what I got so far.... Bishop: Suzie Counselors: MOE and Snow Clerk: Dravin Exec Sec: Pam EQ Pres: Just_A_Guy HPGL: John doe Primary Pres: Elphaba Primary Music Leader: Mormonmusic RS Pres: Vort Sunday School Pres: Maureen YM Pres: FunkyTown YW Pres: Dash77 Edited January 5, 2012 by Suzie Quote
FunkyTown Posted January 5, 2012 Report Posted January 5, 2012 YM Pres: FunkyTownI've changed my mind. Put Suzie in for every Primary Calling and... Heck with it. I'm inventing a calling for my ward: "Ward Complaints Department" - Whenever anyone has any complaint ever, they are to send it to Suzie. Quote
MarginOfError Posted January 5, 2012 Author Report Posted January 5, 2012 In every ward I've ever been in - That's five - I have been called to Young Men's President whenever the Bishop gave me a calling, MOE. You're not the only one.If it's any consolation, Funky, Young Men and Young Women presidents are the ones over which I would agonize the most. There aren't a lot of people in the world I would trust with that position.And I accept the position of YM Pres in your ward Quote

The ward isn't going to know what hit them when they walk into primary and find all those kids with their three-quarter sized Flying V's strapped on belting out Van Halen's "You Really Got Me" with their amps all the way up to 11.

Vort Posted January 5, 2012 Report Posted January 5, 2012 Awesome!!!! The ward isn't going to know what hit them when they walk into primary and find all those kids with their three-quarter sized Flying V's strapped on belting out Van Halen's "You Really Got Me" with their amps all the way up to 11.For $2000, I'll build you an amp that goes to 12.

rameumptom Posted January 5, 2012 Report Posted January 5, 2012 If asked, I will not serve. If pressured, I will beg out. If bribed, you can get my attention. That said, you are all bad for not doing your home teaching last year. Therefore, I'm increasing your families to 10 each. And the whippings will continue until morale improves....

Vort Posted January 5, 2012 Report Posted January 5, 2012 I think I just went inactive.I'm a stern but fair RS pres. I'm all for compassionate service, but my counselors will need to see to the doilies and centerpieces in our meetings. Quote
Dravin Posted January 5, 2012 Report Posted January 5, 2012 Wow, I got mentioned twice, I'm not sure if I should be flattered or scared. Quote
rameumptom Posted January 5, 2012 Report Posted January 5, 2012 Ya know what? These bishops are stepping outside the bounds of their authority, calling EQP and high priest group leaders without a stake president's okay. I nominate myself as the LDS.Net stake president!!!! Now, bishops! Let's see just how well you are going to function! Have you memorized the names and shoe sizes of all the youth in your wards yet? Quote
Vort Posted January 5, 2012 Report Posted January 5, 2012 I nominate myself as the LDS.Net stake president!!!!You can do that?Heck, I nominate myself as the guy everyone pays money to. Quote
john doe Posted January 5, 2012 Report Posted January 5, 2012 I'll be just fine without a calling. Make me the guy who sits on the back row in Sunday School cracking jokes. Quote
Jennarator Posted January 5, 2012 Report Posted January 5, 2012 RS choister for me! That way I can still go to RS, not be in primary, like I always am....and it's a pretty easy job to wave my arm around. Quote
Gwen Posted January 5, 2012 Report Posted January 5, 2012 Sunday School Pres: GwenNot a very inspired bishop are we? lolI'm in a branch so I'm not sure what to do with so many callings. I've also sworn I will never live in a ward again, branches make a nice home.

Dravin Posted January 5, 2012 Report Posted January 5, 2012 I'll be just fine without a calling. Make me the guy who sits on the back row in Sunday School cracking jokes.We have to give you something. How about 3rd assistant hymn book straightener? Quote
Dravin Posted January 5, 2012 Report Posted January 5, 2012 You can do that?Heck, I nominate myself as the guy everyone pays money to.Vort, the Mafioso. Quote
rameumptom Posted January 5, 2012 Report Posted January 5, 2012 You can do that?Heck, I nominate myself as the guy everyone pays money to.Sorry, this is not a Church about money. We are a lay ministry. It is a church about POWER!!!!!Of course, if you mean you are the IRS guy, then yes, you have lots of power. And my money. Quote
Dravin Posted January 5, 2012 Report Posted January 5, 2012 Okay, to actually take a crack at things: Counselors: HiJolly, Ram Clerk: Vort Exec Sec: John Doe (in addition to his hymn book straightening duties).
