The 5 MINUTE Devotional

UPDATED JUNE 12, 2004
This year, our devotional themes are based on President Hinckley's 9 Be's from his book, Way to BE! You can find the links by scrolling down...

This idea came from a class that I attended during a Laurel Legacy (Laurel Leadership) before Girl's Camp.  I have used this a LOT for my own talks, etc., and taught the same class at our Laurel Legacy this year.

As part of the class, we had collected scriptures, thoughts, poems, hymns, quotes for each of the For the Strength of Youth (FTSOY) themes.  I have posted them in PDF or DOC format.  Each YW received a packet with ALL of the pages, and we did devotionals on the spot, with each table being given a topic from the packets.  In addition to the devotional, the girls had to come up with a handout to go along with the devotionals they gave.  They had some GREAT ideas!

I hope that these will help some of you out there.  Some of the YW presidents in my stake commented that now the girls won't be able to say they don't have a thought or scripture for opening exercises! ^_^  Sorry, girls!
