Lesson Title: "Service in the Church"
OTHER RESOURCES:
OBJECTIVE:
Each young woman will understand the importance of serving in the Church and ways she can serve.
PREPARATION:
- Provide a pencil and paper for each young woman.
- Assign a class member to tell about a personal experience she has had with serving in the Church (see the third section of the lesson).
- Assign young women to present any stories, scriptures, or quotations you wish.
ATTENTION GETTER:
Tell the young women about the blessings that have come into your life because you have had the opportunity to teach this class. Mention sacrifices you have had to make and the rewards you feel you have been given for your service. Help the young women to feel that service in the Church is an important part of your life.
LESSON:
Lesson 31 at lds.org
CONCLUSION:
Ask the young women to list the ways in which they are serving in the Church now by supporting Church programs and filling Church callings, large or small. Ask them to try to add one thing to this list.
HANDOUT:
Give each young women a letter that you have written especially to her telling her how you have been blessed to serve as her leader. This will take a little bit of preparation on your part, but the rewards will be ever worth it.
MID-WEEK ACTIVITY IDEA:
As individuals or as a group, select various ward or branch workers to whom to write notes of appreciation for their time and effort in their Church callings.
