CONCLUSION:

Explain that the message recorded in Matthew 22:36-39 has been repeated in modern scripture. Read Doctrine and CovenantsD&C 38:24. Remind the young women that as we learn to love ourselves in the way we should, we are better able to serve our fellowmen and we feel better about ourselves.

HANDOUT:

Print this handout off onto white paper. Color them to add an extra touch. I like to add a touch of glitter glue to the heart to make it stand out.
