At
New Beginnings to introduce this year’s theme. I handed
everyone a slip of paper with a Woman of Scripture on it with
the scripture reference, for example
Elizabeth – Luke 1; 7. We gave everyone a few minutes to look
up the scriptures and then they each explained how their woman
arose and shone forth. I feel it was successful, some were well
known stories but some weren’t. We of course know a lot about
the prophets in the scriptures but there are also many wonderful
examples of faithful women in the scriptures and I think our
Young Women need to know more about them.
