YW of Excellence Evening

According to the Church Handbook of Administration, “the Young Women in Excellence is an event in which young women are recognized for the good things they are doing and a celebration of Personal Progress.”  On November 28, 2012 the B7 YW in Excellence program for young women, ages 12-18, and their parents followed a theme of “Keep Calm and Marathon On.” 

Annie Green compared her experience as a long-distance runner, who has completed more than one St. George Marathon, with living and strengthening a testimony of the gospel and Jesus Christ. The mother of three and daughter of Becky Peterson, another long-distance runner who has completed “hundreds of races”  told the girls they must “prepare, pace yourself and seek help along the way!”
 
Caroline Smith sang “Walk Tall, You’re A Daughter of God”

Lisa Carson shared her love and appreciation for the Young Women’s Program and in particular, the Personal Progress Progam as she prepares “for my own marathon as a missionary awaiting my call to serve the Lord somewhere in the world.”
In addition to the beautiful program, many of the B7 Young Women displayed their particular skills and talents and everyone enjoyed light refreshments and the opportunity to socialize together.
