January: The Godhead
Hey Ladies!
Sorry I have been MIA these past few weeks! We have been traveling like crazy over the holiday season, and with a computer out of order for most of it, blogging just didn't happen. I do hope you can forgive me. :)
Tomorrow in Young Women, we will be introducing the new curriculum and answering any questions you may have. We will also be setting some expectations for preparation for each Sunday's lessons. Please come with questions!!!
This month, most of our blog topics will be focused on just one gospel topic: The Godhead.
All of our lessons this month in Young Women with also be on this topic. Think you'll get bored? Think again. We hope you'll take the time to study the questions listed in the previous post to be familiar and ready to talk (a lot) during the lessons on Sundays.
To introduce this topic, I can't help but turn my mind to the glorious first vision, where the prophet Joseph Smith saw God, the Father and His Son, Jesus Christ. What a reverent and so very sacred experience. I am so grateful for the faith of the prophet Joseph, to kneel in that grove of trees, and pour out his deepest desires to our Father in Heaven. Because of this vision, we know better than anyone the nature of the Godhead. I am forever grateful for this.
Just like the prophet, Joseph Smith, you can kneel and pray to Father in Heaven. He will always answer your prayers in a way that you recognize and comprehend. You can come to know your Father in Heaven and Jesus Christ better than ever before as you do this. The Holy Ghost will be more abundant in your life to help you through trials, insecurities, and unsure times.
With the start of this new year, remember the words of the President Thomas S. Monson: "Your future is as bright as your faith."
Love,
Sister Salmon

Come, Follow Me
As most of you know, the curriculum for the Young Women program will be changing in Januray. We will be ditching our old manuals for a new idea of teaching focusing on different doctrines of the gospel. The program is designed to answer all of your gospel questions, while building your testimony of Jesus Christ and preparing you to enter the temple to serve missions and be married for time and all eternity. As your leaders, we are so excited for this new program. We know you have tons of questions, and we look forward to studying with you.
You probably have a few questions about how all of it will work. When you get a second (or make a second!) visit the church website for more details or click on the link here.

For the month of January,
we will be focusing on The Godhead.
we will be focusing on The Godhead.
Some of the questions we will discuss in class include:
What do we know about the nature of the Godhead?
How can I know my Heavenly Father?
Why is Jesus Christ important in my life?
What are the roles of the Holy Ghost?
Who am I, and who can I become?
Click on each of the questions to find scriptures and links to talks / videos that will help you better understand each question. We would love for you to find time in your personal study to dive into these questions.
During your sudies, if you have ideas on what you would like us to teach or have questions you would like for us to cover, please let us know.
We love you, and we look forward to learning with you.
Much Love-
Sister Salmon

Education
Hey Ladies!
As some of you may know, Brother Salmon is finally graduating from college { only to pursue even more education! }, and we couldn't be happier. I will be out of town this weekend for the graduation festivities, but I look forward to seeing you next week at mutual!
In For the Strength of Youth, it states:
"Education will prepare you for greater service in the world and in the Church. It will help you better provide for yourself, your family, and those in need. It will also help you be a wise counselor and companion to your future spouse and an informed and effective teacher for your future children.
...Maintain an enthusiasm for learning throughout your life. Find joy in continuing to learn and expanding your interests.
...Your education should include spiritual learning. Study the scriptures and the words of the latter-day prophets. Participate in seminary and institute. Continue throughout your life to learn about Heavenly Father's plan. The spiritual learning will help you find answers to the challenges of life and will invite the companionship of the Holy Ghost."
I know that the value of education - both spiritual and temporal - will bless your life. Continue to be faithful in pursuing your goals for education. { click on the link to view a short video! }
