Today we visited the Sarasota YSA Branch. Since we were last there, a new Branch President has been called. The previous Branch President is moving to Germany for a work assignment. Pres. Jackson, the new president, was previously the Ward Mission Leader in the Palmetto Ward.
There were far more members in attendance than when we previously attended the branch. I think this is a result of a number of members from various wards having graduated from high school and are encouraged to attend the YSA branch. Included in these are several young men who have already received their mission calls and a couple more who are submitting their applications. I suspect that by the end of the summer, the branch will once again be facing the challenge of limited priesthood leadership.
