"Accept & Act Upon the Young Women Values
to Come Unto Christ"

Submitted by: Amy L. a.leavitt@worldnet.att.net

Here is an idea for a theme. I'm very excited about this one! It may be too late now for you, but it's an idea for another year.

We are doing "Accept and Act Upon the Young Women Values to Come Unto Christ"

We felt that our girls really need to focus on the values and Personal Progress this year. Each month we have a value and the theme for that month is the value definition. We have really tried to have the values reinforced in the activity.

We are going to have a Personal Progress night each month where the girls do interviews, work on personal progress, etc. If they have memorized the value definition for that month, they recite it at our PP nights and they will receive a small jewel or bead in that value color to put on a bracelet chain.

We also have projects for YWIE. Each girl will do a water color of the age-group symbol for their age. I will cut them out and mount them on black paper and laminate them for YWIE.
