  1. The Young Women Personal Progress Program

  2. "There has never been a time in these latter days like today, when the message is being brought forward so strongly by the First Presidency and the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles to have parents along with bishops and priesthood and auxiliary leaders make sure you . . . understand who you are and what you can become—not only here in mortality but for the eternities that will follow." ~ Elder Robert D. Hales, "Fulfilling Our Duty to God," Ensign, Nov. 2001, 39. Elder Robert D. Hales
