Personal Progress Helps

We know that Personal Progress can seem like a daunting, never-ending thing.
There are so many Value Experiences that you need to work on and the hours upon hours that go into Value Projects! We know it's tough work!

But that's what makes Personal Progress SO rewarding.
We promise, that when you finish and receive your medallion, 
you will be so proud of yourself knowing all of the effort you put into it!
And you'll have some awesome experiences along the way :)

And because we're awesome (and really humble) we want to help you out any way we can!
So you'll see a few new things on the blog to do just that!

This lovely stamp . . .


. . . will be at the end of posts and articles that apply to a specific Value Experience or Project Idea.
It is also located on the side bar so that you can easily click on it to get to a page with ALL of the ideas.

And you'll also notice on the toolbar a lovely new tab . . .


. . . that when you click on it you will be taken to this page with ALL of our Personal Progress ideas for Value Experiences, Projects, and Activities!!!!!!

Since we're just getting started with this, there are not a ton of links on there right now, but we'll be adding more and more throughout the next, well, forever so check back in often!!

We loved our own experiences of working on Personal Progress back we were young and hip Young Women (haha) and we hope to pass on that excitement and help to you!!!!!!

GOOD LUCK!

Tithes & Offerings

What are your thoughts about Tithes & Offerings?
Have you had an experience of paying your tithing and it blessed your life?
Read below from our Summer 2015 Issue to see one way it has blessed ours!




-------------------------------------------------------

Faith Value Experience #7: The Lord has commanded us to pay tithing. Read Doctrine & Covenants 119 and Malachi 3:8-12. Since obedience to the law of tithing is an evidence of your faith, pay a full tithe. After three months record in your journal how paying tithing has heaped your faith grow. List blessings in your life, both large and small, that have come because of your faith in the principle of tithing.



Choice & Accountability Value Experience #7: Making choices is part of Heavenly Father's plan for us. Read Moses 4:1-4; 7:32; and 2 Nephi 9:51. Establish a pattern of wise money management by making a budget for saving and spending your money, including the payment of tithing. Live within your budget for at least three months. Set priorities that allow you to meet your most important needs before satisfying your wants. Record in your journal what you have learned and how following these patterns will continue to bless your life.
