PURPOSES OF THE YOUNG WOMEN PROGRAM:

• Help Prepare Young Women to Save Souls. Click HERE to see and have girls share this article where a young woman age 15 said she would not date until she was 16. This intrigued the young man who asked her for a date. He did not know about Mormons and started to investigate the Church and was fellowshipped, missionary lessons were taught, and he was baptized because of this young woman’s influence. She was the cause of his “joy” he said. – By Carol F. McConkie, first counselor, Young Women general presidency, 27 September 2013
