CONCLUSION:

Quotation Read the following quotation. If you have made copies for the young women, you may wish to distribute these and read it together. “What we must be willing to do is to sacrifice whatever is required of us, whether time, or talent, or riches, or the praise and honor of men, or whatever it may be, to the extent the Lord may require it” (Loren C. Dunn, “News of the Church,” Ensign, Feb. 1980, pp. 78-79). Writing activity Distribute paper and a pencil to each young woman and ask her to list several goals she hopes to achieve. Next to each goal, have her list one or more things she must sacrifice to reach that goal. Teacher testimony Bear witness that each day we should work on worthwhile goals, sacrificing to improve ourselves as daughters of God. Continual effort and sacrifice will help make us worthy to live eternally with our Heavenly Father.
