Ashley Wilkes has faithfully completed all the requirements necessary to receive the Young Womanhood Recognition and was recognized for her accomplishment during a recent Sacrament meeting. This award recognizes young women in the Bloomington 7th Ward and throughout the church for worthiness and for completing Personal Progress requirements. As a recipient of the award, Ashley has shown she honors her commitment to live the commandments and the standards of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in an established pattern of progress in her life and as stated in For the Strength of Youth. Through her Personal Progress, the daughter of Robert and Chardell Wilkes has committed herself to keeping her baptismal covenants as she prepares to make sacred temple covenants, serve those in need by sharing her gifts and talents, and striving to strengthen her home and family.
YW President Cheryl Kanenwisher states, “Ashley is a wonderful example of a Young Woman who knows her divine nature and individual worth. She lives a life of integrity, faith, and virtue. You will always see her performing good works and seeking ways to increase her knowledge. She understands how important it is to make good choices and be accountable for her decisions. I have loved getting to know this beautiful, wise young lady. She is a joy to me and I am very proud of her. I'm thankful, daily, for her example in my life. Congratulations Ashley!!”
