Young Women (organization)

The group had held several informal meetings since late January of that year under the supervision of apostle Heber C.

[4] From 1869 to 1880, the new Young Women organization functioned at the local ward level, without a general presidency.

The "Aaronic Priesthood MIA Young Women" was the name of the LDS Church's official youth organization between 1972 and 1974.

It was formed by consolidating the Young Men's Mutual Improvement Association and the YWMIA into one organization.

As I strive to qualify for exaltation, I cherish the gift of repentance and seek to improve each day.

With faith, I will strengthen my home and family, make and keep sacred covenants, and receive the ordinances and blessings of the holy temple."

In each ward (local congregation), all females (ages 11 to 18) are members of Young Women classes.

Also, every other year eligible young women may attend regional For the Strength of Youth conferences.
