New Beginnings

Last night we had our New Beginnings for Young Women's. I felt that it turned our really nice. The Mutual Theme for the year is Be thou and example of the believers, in word, in conversation, in charity, in spirit, in faith,in purity. (1 Timothy 4:12). The First Counselor in the Young Women gave a wonderful talk on the theme, and then we had a some of the Young Women in our ward give talks on an example of each value. They all did a really great job. They also sang a really beautiful song called A Lighthouse in the Night. It was a really nice evening.
I received my Young Women Recognition Award last night. I have been working really hard on getting it since I was put in as a leader. I am hoping that by me receiving mine, that I have inspired the girls to want to receive theirs. I have always regretted not receiving mine while I was in the Young Women program as a teenager. I am so glad that I have had the opportunity to finish it now and to be an example to the Young Women in my ward. I love my calling and I love being able to work with the young ladies of my ward, they are wonderful girls.
