Lesson 20

Lesson Title: "Reach Out to Others"

OTHER RESOURCES:

OBJECTIVE:

Each young woman will extend friendship to young women of her own age and encourage them to take part in Church activities and meetings.

PREPARATION:

  1. Assign young women to present any scriptures, stories, or quotations you wish.

ATTENTION GETTER:

Read the case studies found at the beginning of the lesson aloud to the young women. Have them try to find one thing that is missing in each situation. (A friend - someone who cares.)

LESSON:

Lesson 20 at lds.org

CONCLUSION:

Point to the candles on the chalkboard. Explain that the Lord has said we should not hide our light under a bushel (see Matthew 5:15-16). We should share it with others. The light of one young woman does make a difference.

Testimony:

Bear witness to the young women that if they will honestly try to extend friendship to others, the Lord will bless them for their efforts. Encourage them to conscientiously share their light with others.

HANDOUT:

Attach a handout to a candle for each of your young women. Ask them to sit it on their dresser this week to remind them of the lesson.

MID-WEEK ACTIVITY IDEA:

Invite the young women to choose a person that they, as a class, would like to reactivate or introduce to the gospel. Have them develop a plan to do this. Have a class member take notes of the ideas as they are discussed. Choose an item from the list of ideas that the young women can begin working on now.
