JUMPED FROM THE FARM RIGHT INTO THE RIVER...!

Got an email notice last week that our Windsor Colorado Stake was going to meet together in a ZOOM meeting today at 11 am for the purpose of reorganizing the three wards that meet in the Johnstown Chapel which is in our Carlson Farm neighborhood. 

So, dutifully at 11 am following our family Sacrament meeting this morning, we tuned in to the ZOOM meeting and found out that instead of three wards meeting in our building, we are now only going to be two wards attending Church meetings there. 

Boundaries run east and west with Highway 60 which has the main road (which borders our neighborhood on the south) as the dividing line between the Big Thompson River Ward and the South Platte River Ward. 

That means we are going to be in the Big Thompson River Ward and have the same bishop and the 2nd counselor who moved up to 1st counselor with a new second counselor. We're going to have a lot a people in the ward that I don't know. But then that's because they will be from the area north of us which extends into the annexed area of Johnstown all the way up to Hiway 34 in Loveland. 

Burgandy in her new house in Milliken will be in the South Platte River Ward. New bishop and counselors, also all unfamiliar to me. 

It should be interesting as each ward is now at the 500+ mark. Coincidentally, both have 80 children in Primary. There are going to be lots of new ward positions as the Primary president, among others, are in the other ward. The ward organist is also in the other ward. 

Maybe, just maybe I might be able to play the piano for Primary or the organ for Sacrament meeting. I have soooo missed having a calling where I PLAY music. Then again....maybe nothing at all close to that for a calling. Time will tell. 

Also, following recent talks between Elder Anderson and Carl B. Cook of the Area Presidency, it looks like we will be returning to "Church at the Chapel" in the near future. Change at Church is always exciting! And this is a BIG change from the way things have been for the past several years. 

I, for one, am looking forward to it....
