3 Years, 2 Months
Three years, 2 months ago I was called to be Relief Society President of our ward. Three years, 2 months later I've been released. I still can't believe it's over. While in it I was for sure that I would have it for the rest of my life. This has been the longest, hardest, most rewarding calling I have had so far. It took me completely out of my comfort zone and made me grow in areas that I would of rather of never awakened. I'm amazed that I survived, but then again I'm not. I knew Heavenly Father would help me and make things possible. I'm a little sad to leave such a huge part of my life behind but I will take what I've learned and try to be a better person because of it. I'm excited for what lies ahead and even more excited to know that I don't have any more meetings to attend! I love this church, I love this gospel!

3 YEARS?!!!! Wow! You ARE the woman! I bet those sisters are going to miss you alot! What is your new calling? (Or are you tryin' to lay low for a while?) I hope you don't get to bored! LOL hahaha!
They called me as the Ward Organist. What a great calling! (Dream one actually.) It gets even better I share the responsiblity with the girl who is currently playing the piano. She does the prelude and the rest hymn, I do the other 3. I don't have to go early and I can sit with my family for most of it!
Hi Malia!
You have been a great Relief Society President for our ward!
We will all miss you! I enjoyed serving with you! We are all blessed to know you! Your testimoney is sweet and from the heart.
What a great new calling! I'm happy for you!
I know you were a great leader! What a good example you are to us!
I will miss sitting next to you in ward council! It won't be the same.
Malia, you were the right girl for the job these last three years, and I know everyone is grateful for all you did.
You have more than earned a little bit of a break from meetings!
Hey Malia! You know that you can't get too comfy with your new calling right...they are just waiting to call you as the new STAKE Relief society President!! HA HA! JK!! You are a great example and I am sure all of the sisters in your ward will miss having you as their leader.
I'm sure you were an awesome R.S. president! How cool to get to play the organ now - you deserve a break for sure!!
Malia - I am sorry to hear about your mom. Losing a loved one is a hard thing to have to go through. It is nice to know that you will be able to be with her again though. My prayers and thoughts are with you.
