Message to the girls...

Dear YW,
As your leaders we want each one of you to know that we love you and know that you are daughters of God. You are amazing...each one of you! As you strive to follow the commandments and do what you know to be right you will be blessed and you will bless the lives of those around you. You have been sent here to this earth with a purpose and a mission to fulfill. As your leaders, we will do everything we can to help you grow spiritually and fulfill that purpose. We commit to you, that we will prepare ourselves by studying our scriptures, having our own personal prayers and keeping ourselves worthy to enter the temple, and we challenge you to do the same. We love each one of you and only want the best for you..."Never forget that you came here to earth as a child of a divine Father, with something of divinity in your very makeup. The Lord did not send you here to fail. He did not give you life to waste it. He bestowed upon you the gift of mortality that you might gain experience – positive, wonderful, purposeful experience – that will lead to eternal life.”
~President Gordon B. Hinckley, 2001

Love always,
Your YW leaders
