Young Women Manual 3 Lesson 18: Temple Marriage

This weeks handout is for Lesson 18: Temple Marriage. This lesson really discusses the difference between a civil marriage and a Temple Marriage. In the lesson it discusses 5 questions that ask  the girls to think about the difference between the two types of marriages.
1. Where does the marriage take place?
2. Who will perform the marriage?
3. How long will the marriage last?
4. What will people be doing throughout eternity?
5. What will be the state of the family in eternity?
How important are the answers to these 5 questions!  Do you want to lose your family after this life?  Sometimes I think as young women they don't think about the difference between civil marriage and a temple marriage. I know growing up we were taught all about temple marriages and how important it was to be married in the temple but I really didn't understand the importance!
I cannot imagine living my life without my family.  Knowing that I can have them with me forever is one the greatest gifts that I have received from my Heavenly Father.
This handout has two great quotes from the lesson. Another resource that I love it the 7th paragraph of
"THE FAMILY: A PROCLAMATION TO THE WORLD" it states:
"The family is ordained of God. Marriage between man and woman is essential to His eternal plan. Children are entitled to birth within the bonds of matrimony, and to be reared by a father and a mother who honor marital vows with complete fidelity. Happiness in family life is most likely to be achieved when founded upon the teachings of the Lord Jesus Christ. Successful marriages and families are established and maintained on principles of faith, prayer, repentance, forgiveness, respect, love, compassion, work, and wholesome recreational activities. By divine design, fathers are to preside over their families in love and righteousness and are responsible to provide the necessities of life and protection for their families. Mothers are primarily responsible for the nurture of their children. In these sacred responsibilities, fathers and mothers are obligated to help one another as equal partners. Disability, death, or other circumstances may necessitate individual adaptation. Extended families should lend support when needed."

Young Women Manual 3 Lesson 17: Preparing to Attend the Temple

Sorry this is late ladies!!  I swear time is just getting away from me!  I guess that is what happens when you are crazy busy!  This weeks Young Women lesson is "Preparing to Attend the Temple" This lesson is a very scared lesson on how each young woman can prepare to visit the temple, to receive their own endowment. 
“Find out for yourself who Jesus Christ really is. You can know him, and as you make the temple covenants with God, you are putting your hand in his, and receiving blessings from his hand all the time” (quoted in Kathleen Lubeck, “Preparing for the Temple Endowment,” New Era, Feb. 1987, p. 11).
I remember the first time I went to the temple and received my endowment. It was before I went on my mission. Everyone kept asking me after if I was okay. I couldn't figure out why I wouldn't be okay it was the greatest day in my life up to that point. I knew that the scared covenants that I made in the temple that day were all under the direction of my Father in Heaven that his work was being done. I will never forget that day as I had prepared myself to enter into the Holy Temple of my Father. 
It is so important that each young woman understand the importance of going to the temple to be endowed and to take up herself those scare covenants. I pray that each of you have the opportunity to go to the temple and to reap the blessings our Father Heaven has for each of you! 

I love my Father and His Son my Brother Jesus Christ. I am thankful for the plan they have given us and the power of the gospel in my life. I am thankful for one young man that had the faith and courage to ask that one question that brought the true and everlasting gospel back to this earth in our day and time.  I am thankful for all the blessings I have received and all my Father has given me! I know He lives I know he loves me and that my Brother Jesus Christ is my Savior and Redeemer that through Him I may return to live with my Father in Heaven, with my family for time and all eternity. I share this with you in the name of Our Savior Jesus Christ Amen.

Young Women Manual 3 Lesson 14: We Have a Wonderful Legacy

This week's Young Women's Handout is made using the combo of 2 kits that were made to coordinate! Cloud Nine and For Eternity .  The lesson is "We Have a Wonderful Legacy"  This lesson talks about the legacy of the Church and the restoration of the Gospel to the earth.  The following testimony from President Joseph Fielding Smith:
“We believe that following a long night of darkness, unbelief, and departure from the truths of pure and perfect Christianity, the Lord in his infinite wisdom has again restored to earth the fullness of the everlasting gospel.
“We know Joseph Smith is a prophet; that the Father and the Son appeared to him in the spring of 1820 to usher in this final gospel dispensation; that he translated the Book of Mormon by the gift and power of God; that he received keys and authority from angels sent for this very purpose; and that the Lord revealed to him the doctrines of salvation.
“We announce that The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is the kingdom of God on earth, the only place where men may come to learn the true doctrines of salvation and find the authority of the holy priesthood” (in Conference Report, Apr. 1971, p. 5; or Ensign, June 1971, p. 4).

I would like to add that I know the Church is true I know that God the Father and His Son Our Brother Jesus Christ live and they love us each individually. They know us and they knew that we were going to need the gospel restored to help guides back to live with them. I am so very thankful for the gifts of the gospel we have the gift of repentance, the priesthood, The Book of Mormon, a Prophet that is called by Our Father to teach us and lead us in these days.  I am thankful for all my Father has given me and for the graciousness. I share this with you in the name of my Savior Jesus Christ Amen.

Young Women General Broadcast Invite FREEBIE

I was asked to make an invite to the upcoming LDS Mother-Daughter Conference for the Young Women General Broadcast scheduled for the end of March 2011. I created a blank version for those who could use it as well. As a result of that invite, I put together this mini-kit with the parts created for it. It matches the Cloud Nine and For Eternity kits already available in my store at Faith Sisters because some pieces from the invite were also from those kits. This mini-kit comes with one Book of Mormon, journal tag, journal tie, mom, daughter, seven papers and one complete alpha one two sheets with upper, lower, numbers and symbols.

Young Women Manual 3 Lesson 12: The Blessings of the Priesthood

This hand out is for lesson 12 "The Blessings of the Priesthood" This lesson is about the Priesthood and the blessings that the priesthood brings to our lives.
This quote is from the lesson: The priesthood is for the blessing of all—men, women, and children. Through the priesthood we receive and administer the ordinances of the gospel, which include baptism, confirmation, the sacrament, all temple ordinances, including sealings for time and all eternity, and work for the dead. By the power of the priesthood the sick are healed, the lame made to walk, the blind to see, and the deaf to hear, according to their faith and the will of our Father in heaven. Blessings of the priesthood comfort those who mourn, and give aid to the stricken” (N. Eldon Tanner, “The Priesthood of God,” Ensign, June 1973, p. 6).
I personally have a very strong testimony of the power of the priesthood. While I was serving my mission in  the Chile Santiago West Mission I was in a very severe accident, I was thrown from a bus and fractured my skull.  I was taken to the hospital and remember very few details.  I remember boarding the bus and then drifting in and out of conscientiousness.  I was in a coma for about 4 days then released to my mission President where I spent a few weeks.  I was given the option to return home honorable but I decided to stay and finish my mission.  A few months passed and I was talking to one of the Elders who served in the office at the time of my accident.  He told me, "You really scared us Sister Chesnut."  I told him, "I scared myself.  I was lucky I made it that I had survived." " He looked at me and said "When we give you the first blessing while you were unconscientious and you said, Amen at the end of the blessing I knew you were going to be okay."  I thank my Father Heaven daily for the power of the priesthood for a gift so precious that saved my life.  For the blessing as I was released  since I had served faithfully and diligently that I would not suffer any negative effects from the accident.  I share this with you in the name of My Savior and older Brother Jesus Christ Amen.
