Hello!
I am very excited to be able to be a part of this blog and share ideas and insights with all of you. I have truly enjoyed the task of creating the weekly lesson handouts and have been thrilled with the response. Stay tuned as the 3rd quarter handouts will be ready soon!
During Conference, as I was switching through the channels I stumbled upon a great documentary called “Sisterz in Zion.” Maybe you have seen or heard of it, but if not, I wanted to give my opinion, that this is a great program for YW! It shows a group of YW from New York–who truly hold the highest standards all on their own. Many of them are the only LDS in their families and schools, and travel alone through New York’s public transportation to seminary and church. What great examples these YW are to the youth of today! The documentary focuses on a few girls as they are followed “real world” style in their daily life. Then, they have the great opportunity to travel to Utah to BYU to attend a week of EFY. What wonderful and interesting things they encounter! I thoroughly enjoyed this film and suggest it as a YW movie night. You will laugh and cry and it’s a great way to get your girls ready if they too plan to attend EFY this summer. To find out more information you can go to:
It also airs periodically on the satellite station BYU-TV, check here: www.byub.org for listing times.
Cheers!
