how can i make my prayers more meaningful?

here's another handout that i created for one of my young women lessons last month (come follow me, may 2013).  i should have posted it last month, but with trek and girl's camp, things got a little crazy!

Or download from Google Docs, at this link.

girl's camp 2013 - testimony devotional handout

back here i talked about the devotional that i gave at yw girl's camp.  i wanted to give the girls a little handout to go with my devotional and a quick pinterest search yielded some great results, which i saved onto my own board.

i decided to go with this printout that i found over at little lds ideas.  i only printed the "polish your 'toes'-timony!" cards.

then i went to dollar tree and purchased a bottle of  nail polish for each girl and a nail clipper set (pictured below).  i took the clippers out of the package and attached them to the bottle of nail polish with some satin ribbon. i wish i had taken pictures, they turned out cute.


the girls very quickly put their new nail polish to good use... painting the bishopric's nails!  it's been a tradition that has been going on for as many years as i've gone to camp with the girls (which ws 5 years this year!  can you believe it!)

what are the keys of the priesthood?

i've been teaching in young women's since april 2011.  finally started making my own handouts instead of just using ones i have found online.  they are not the most graphically pleasing, but they serve my needs.

i make them with margins to fit inside my study journals, so you just print and trim the edges.

here is the one i will be using for this sunday.
