​     When voting members gather in Phoenix in September of 2023, they will be electing women to positions of churchwide leadership for the 2023-2026 triennium. Four officers and 11 board members will be elected. Starting today and continuing until November 30, 2022, nominations  will be received for secretary, treasurer, and board member.
     What’s it like to serve on the churchwide executive board? How does this leadership experience change a woman? We asked those who will be ending their service on the churchwide board in September 2023 to offer a few words about what serving on the churchwide board has meant to them. There are some similar threads: growth in faith, expanded understanding of community, an opportunity to shape the future, increased personal understanding.
