We really felt that our opening exercises was lacking
something so we decided to run an idea along side the theme "Stand Ye In Holy
Places". We took the Mormonad poster "Aspire Higher" and cut it into about
175 puzzle pieces. In opening exercises we will give the YW an opportunity to place a
puzzle piece in the puzzle for every goal they have completed in Personal Progress.
Throughout the year the puzzle will start to form and then in Nov. when we present our
YW's in Excellence we will be able to show the parents and the ward how our girls have
"Aspired Higher".

Sisters- My stake YW pres. got it yesterday
from SLC headquarters.
It is..... "Stand Ye in Holy Places"
Further info will appear on lds.org ASAP. The YW Broadcast will be based on this
theme. That is all I know. Suggestions and ideas on how to use it would be great for
all!!!

This phrase comes from D&C 87:8. It is a
commandment that comes with a blessing of protection from the wickedness and danger from
the last days. I read what was in the D&C student institute manual and it said that
this phrase means two things:
- Being pure in heart (Zion)
- "any place where a man [or woman] enjoys the
spirit and presence of Divinity.
I have been racking my brain for ideas also. Here
are a couple of the basic thoughts that would help with activities, etc. First, a heart
theme would be really easy to work with. Second, whenever I wanted to go somewhere my mom
would ask me "If the Savior returned then is that where you would want Him to find
you?" This could be turned into a year long theme. The question does not just apply
to a physical place but could apply to our own personal progress: are you where you want
to be spiritually, mentally, etc.? These are just some suggestions to get us all started.

In the aftermath of random acts of terror and violence and
in view of our renewed patriotism, we've thought about making our theme based on Being
involved in Random Acts Of Kindness (RAOK) and putting forth the idea that we are God's
army and His means of performing good works. We'll carry through a red, white, and
blue theme. We thought about putting each YW's name in a jar and drawing one out each week
and having that YW share in opening exercises what RAOK she performed that week. These
RAOK will be a good first step toward missionary work and experiences.

In our stake we first decided what our goals were. Then we
got input from the young women. Finally (after much discussion, prayer, and a visit to the
temple) we picked a theme ... "Eternity Matters Today." The acronym is EMT, and
we've already got lots of ideas using EMT's. The insignia on an EMT uniform is called the
"star of life" and has six points to it. We are focusing on six areas we feel
fit into our goals (like strengthen home and family, stand tall, choose the right.)

If anyone is still looking for theme ideas, here's another
one. We had our stake leadership meeting last night, and this is what our stake YW
presidency presented for us to use next year. They have decided that our stake focus will
be on missionary work. The theme they chose is "How Great Shall Be Your Joy". To
go along with it they had come up with these areas of focus:
Be Aware
Ask In Prayer
Truly Care
Wisely Prepare
Dare To Share
Any of those by itself would be a great theme too!
