When we save a girl, we save generations.
Think about the YW in your stake
How many attend no meetings?

support
Think of a YW who needs strengthening
Someone not in YW who you could bless
Prayerfully help YW to find those they can help
"Let there develop an awareness in every member's heart of his own potential for
bringing others to a knowledge of the truth. Let him work at it. Let him pray
with great earnestness about it" ("Find the Lambs, Fee the Sheep,"
Ensign, May 1999
ASK IN PRAYER
Ask, and ye shall receive D & C 4:7
Teach YW to pray for: a desire to share the gospel, opportunity,
courage

Good eye contact - listen
Ask someone to join you and sit with you
Think about them and make a contact - phone call
YW worry about acceptance
Do Laurel talk to Beehives?
Do Mia Maids talk to ANYONE? °Ü°
Outgoing is a skill
Begin with a smile
GREETING- a compliment, my name is ..., what's yours. Hi, I saw you in
my English class
QUESTION - how is you day, family, recreation, occupation,
OBSERVATION - I like your hair, you look happy,
"They might not need me; but they might.
I'll let my head be just in sight;
A smile as small as mine might be
Precisely their necessity."
Emily Dickerson

2 Nephi 33:1
D&C 42:14
Prepare YW
We should be spiritually sensitive to moments when the powerful and important truths of
the gospel can be shared with others...We should seek at all times to purify ourselves and
to lead such worthy lives that the Light of Christ emanates from us in all that we say and
do" (M. Russell Ballard, May 2000 Ensign, 33)
ALWAYS invite less active or non members
Things we could do to reach out to less active
Role play answers to reach out to them
Attend sports events of others
Never go where the spirit cannot be to try to reach out to less active
DARE TO SHARE
Romans 1:6
DO IT!
