By choosing to be in His kingdom, we separate—not isolate—ourselves from the world. Our dress will be modest, our thoughts pure, our language clean. The movies and television we watch, the music we listen to, the books, magazines, and newspapers we read will be uplifting. We will choose friends who encourage our eternal goals, and we will treat others with kindness. We will shun the vices of immorality, gambling, tobacco, liquor, and illicit drugs. Our Sunday activities will reflect the commandment of God to remember the Sabbath day and keep it holy. We will follow the example of Jesus Christ in the way we treat others. We will live to be worthy to enter the house of the Lord.

FREE! LDS Youth 2017 Print + Coordinating YW Theme Poster

I'm so excited for this year's theme! It just seems like the right theme for this year- ASK! 

“If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.

But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed”

 James 1:5–6

Last year we would recite the YW theme AND the 2016 theme scripture (2 Nephi 31:20 Press Forward..)  during our opening exercises.We plan to do that again this year. I made these prints to hang at the front of our classroom to help us memorize the 2017 theme.

I printed the 8x10 scripture print at Costco but any photo center will work! I printed the 18x24 poster on glossy photo paper at Alphagraphics, but any FED EX/Kinkos, Staples, copy supply store should also be able to print it! 

I've also made the Scripture Print in 4x6 as well, perfect for passing out to each individual girl!

Hip Hip Hooray! It's Your Birthday!

My friend told me about a birthday gift idea her ward used for birthdays in Young Women. 

I found these little printouts on Little LDS Ideas. 

I wanted to print 4 to a page, though and get the most bang for my buck. 

So I decided to design my own!

Download the 8.5x11 PDF print here. It has 4 'cards' to a page.

I recommend printing this on  glossy cardstock. You need a paper thick enough to support the weight of the lip balm. I used my Fiskars paper slicer to cut my cards out. I also suggest using a 1.5 inch circle hole punch to make the hole for the lip balm. I bought mine from Hobby Lobby for only $4.99. You can also just cut a hole out with scissors. 

To attach the lip balm to the card,  open up the lip balm, put the paper in between the lid and balm (it will fit right through the hole you punched out), and then screw the lid shut. Easy peasy. 

Press Forward

Wherefore, ye must press forward with a steadfastness in Christ, having a perfect brightness of hope, and a love of God and of all men. Wherefore, if ye shall press forward, feasting upon the word of Christ, and endure to the end, behold, thus saith the Father: Ye shall have eternal life.

-2 Nephi 31:20-

When we attend church, do we expect to hear something new each time? The reality is that messages may be similar orally, but the Spirit will individually teach us in new ways. This is one reason why we should seek to always have His Spirit to be with us. It is up to us to hear with spiritual ears what is being said. Never discredit the central truths of the gospel simply because they are familiar or repeated often.

As we learn and apply the gospel in our lives, we will be strengthened to progress and overcome temptations. The world may grow more and more wicked, but our personal conversion will deepen and we will be able to press forward with faith in the Savior. - David A. Bednar
