Scriptures - if we ask our young women to bring their scriptures to class but
then never open them...., "Strength through the scriptures will help them
through their daily lives.
Leadership Training Video, though the clothes are outdated in the video the
advise is still applicable.
Copy of General YW Broadcast held in March, make this an event, a
tradition. The information given at these conferences is just a vital to the YW as
the information given at Gen. Conference to the general membership.
New Leadership Training Manual. It is principle based, so principles can be
applied.
Strength of the Youth Pamphlet/Teach Principles, Not Rules (wallet size for each
YW).
Value Theme Card (wallet size for each YW)
Read cover to cover.
Use it to plan activity nights.
Plan w/a Gospel Purpose-If the activity does not build and strengthen
testimonies, it isn't worth having. Don't have an activity just to have an activity.
Our stewardship is to bring the YW closer to Christ.
There is a blank page, a tissue of the temple then on the next page a picture of
Christ. Have the YW put a picture of themselves directly on the blank page (back
side of front cover) so that when you lay the tissue on that side they can see their
picture behind the temple. The idea is that when they open the book their picture is
on the left and on the right they can see Christ through the tissue of the temple.
When they come unto Christ through personal study and guidance of the PP program, they
will be prepared to enter into the house of the Lord, thus the temple moved to the left,
the girl can see herself in the temple.
REREAD about the YW logo, Motto and theme.
YW Resource Guide - this guide was inspired. Sis. Nadauld took this
idea to the Prophet and it was put together in Oct. The Purpose is to help YW
Leaders teach lessons and will enable the church magazines to print stories and
information to help reinforce the lessons being taught.
We need to use the tools that have been provided and not make up our own.
Teach Principles not Rules.
"When you save a YW, you save
generations."
(President Gordon B. Hinckley)
