New Bishopric

Our ward had a change in leadership on Sunday. It was sad to see our bishop released because we love him so very much but I know that he has served us and the Lord well. He now gets a break from that calling. It was awesome to have our Stake President come and address us. First he explained some things about the differences between the setting apart of a bishop and the ordination of a bishop. He also told us the process of getting a new bishop. It was very interesting. Especially that a bishop has to be approved by the 1st Presidency and Quorem of 12 apostles. WOW!!!! Then he read some excerpts from the handbook. Then he released our bishopric and we were able to sustain a new bishopric. I will support and sustain them. They are called of the Lord to serve us and I know they are awesome men with wonderful families. I am so grateful that the Lord has a plan for everything. He truly is in charge of and leads our church on the earth.
