This week's Challenge

Today our lessons were on How Can I Be More Christlike in my Service to Others? The Laurels heard a story about Sister Matson's friend, Donna. They were challenged to remember a time that service was rendered to them or to their families and then return that service to someone else, in a "pay it forward" fashion.

The Mia Maids were challenged to render service this week to someone outside your comfort circle to give service to.

Beehives were challenged to read President Uchtdorf's talk and return to class next week with their favorite part. http://www.lds.org/general-conference/2010/04/you-are-my-hands . (Laurels and Mia Maids might like to read this as well!!)

In addition to the challenge activities his week all of the YW have two opportunities to render service:

Wednesday: For mutual activity, the youth will be sponsoring the games and activities at the ward Harvest social. The Laurels will be in charge of the bean bag toss, the Mia Maids will be organizing the ring toss and the donut eating contest and the Beehives are in charge of pumpkin bowling! Come at 6:30 p.m. Bring a friend!






Saturday: The stake secret service activity begins at 9:00 a.m. The girls should report to the church building at 9:00 a.m. and plan to stay as long as they can. If you need a ride, call Sister Ponder. Donuts and chocolate milk provided by Sister Ponder. Email, call or text Sister Ponder and let her know your favorite type of donut! Bring a friend!!

Happy Birthday, Jessica Bush!

Happy Sweet Sixteen, Jessica. We are thinking of you today. So glad to have you in the Laurel Class.

This Sunday!

How can I be more Christlike in my service to others?

Jesus Christ set the perfect example of how to love and serve those around Him. At baptism, we promise to serve others.

We can serve others as the Savior did in many ways, such as helping family members, sharing the gospel with others, and

performing simple, everyday acts of kindness.

Our YW Mini-MTC

Yesterday our class discussed the attributes of Jesus Christ. Each group of two was assigned an attribute from Preach My Gospel such as Virtue, Obedience, Diligence, Faith, Hope, etc. They studied PMG and the assigned scriptures and shared the parts they read with their partner. Then, at the end of class, presented what they discovered to the rest of the combined class group. Each young woman was challenged to go home and make that attribute (or another they chose) a goal in their personal quest to become more like the Savior.

These are a few of our favorite.....General Conference Quotes!

The Young Women were challenged to bring their favorite conference quote to class today. Everyone agreed President Uchtdorf's quote was one of our favorites:

"Doubt your doubts before you doubt your faith."

Here are a few more:

"Prayers are the passport to peace."  --- Thomas S Monson

"Be not afraid, only believe." -- Boyd K Packer

"As you lose your life in the service of Father in Heaven’s children,Satan’s temptations lose power in your life.   --  Richard G Scott

"Tears are alright. They are the price we pay for love, care and compassion in the world." -- Jeffrey R. Holland.

“Don’t forget to look up.” --  Elder Adrián Ochoa

"Women of God can never be like women of the world. The world has enough women who are tough; we need women who are tender. There are enough women who are coarse; we need women who are kind. There are enough women who are rude; we need women who are refined. We have enough women of fame and fortune; we need more women of faith."
