Wednesday, Wednesday

What started out as a horribly, yucky, rainy day ended well with a great bunch of Young Women. For our YW activity Andrea set up a fun scripture scavenger hunt around the church. Each clue was a scripture that the girls had to look up and it led them to the next clue. We ended in the RS room with the final treasure. Andrea talked about how the scriptures are a treasure and can be used to answer questions in our daily lives. Sometimes the answers are easy to find and sometimes they take more searching, like the clues for our scavenger hunt. Then each girl shared something they treasured. None of the items that the girls brought were expensive and they all represented something that was priceless, like a relationship with a family member or a spiritual experience. It wasn't planned this way but it was wonderful to see what the girls really value. I feel so blessed that my calling is serving with this awesome group of girls. It is wierd that Taylor will be joining them in October but I am so looking forward to it.
I love the girls in this picture, but I often think about the girls that I would like to see in this picture. The ones we miss seeing on a weekly basis and the one that has moved away. :(
