There also is nothing stopping you and/or your husband from using the time that normally would be dedicated to HT and VT to visit nursing homes or members of the ward socially. If you aren’t getting an assignment, create one on your own.
That’s brilliant. I would love to create one on my own instead of the calling I got assigned (which feels like it involved zero inspiration and is more like a not-veiled-at-all attempt to force me to attend RS).
To Donna:
Seriously, if you knit or crochet, make lap blankets or shawls or hats for the elderly or the homeless. Maybe volunteer at a soup kitchen. Even picking up trash in the park is a help. There are so many amazing opportunities out there to genuinely help people aside from the sometimes busywork stuff involved in callings. From what I just learned, you could even volunteer as a temple worker if you’d like. Personally, I think you’re in a rich and wonderful position- you can evaluate where your skills are needed and what you like to do (or what you feel would be a welcome challenge) and make an offer to your bishop (or whoever handles this stuff). He’d probably be grateful and relieved you took the initiative, I bet.
Good luck!
