Meet the Ladies part 3

Post by MoPag »

Here is our brand new RS Presidency:

Okay so not exactly brand new, Bingham was over in the Primary presidency when they promoted? her.

Sister Jean B. Bingham - from her bio:
While her children were in their later school years, Sister Bingham returned to college. She received a bachelor’s degree and master’s degree in teaching from National Louis University in Illinois. She also received associate degrees from Brigham Young University and Elgin Community College.
She gave a talk last October. It was pretty benign.

Sister Sharon Eubank - She is the only single sister. Interesting bio though:
Since 1998 she has been employed by the Church’s Welfare Department, helping establish LDS employment offices in Africa and Europe before directing the LDS Charities wheelchair initiative. In 2008, she was also asked to oversee humanitarian work in the Middle East as the regional director of LDS Charities. In 2011 she was named the director of LDS Charities worldwide. She believes serving others is “the very DNA of being a member of Christ’s Church” and the heart and soul of Relief Society.
No talks from her yet. Hopefully we will hear from her tonight. I would be interested in what she has to say.


Sister Reyna I. Aburto - Wow, really long and interesting bio. Here is a snippet:
She attended Universidad Centroamericana, where she studied industrial engineering for four years, and holds an AAS degree in computer science from Utah Valley University. She has worked in the language industry for more than 25 years, balancing work, family and Church responsibilities, and now owns a small translation business with her husband.
Sister Aburto says two major incidents from her childhood greatly impacted her life: surviving an earthquake that destroyed her home and killed her older brother, and living through a period of civil unrest in Nicaragua in the late 1970s. Through these difficult experiences of loss, uncertainty and fear, she learned relationships, family, love and faith are our most precious possessions.
She's a newbie too. I hope we hear from her tonight. Her perspective could help a lot of women.

I guess in the end though, we will hear from the women who are the most "church broke." And I'm sure any truly empowering messages these women could come up with will be edited and tamed down.

I'm impressed with the counselors.

I like they have ties and life experiences outside of Utah.

These women are much nicer to look at than the old men in the red chairs. I hope they speak more often in conferences once.
