Young Women's Lesson - Our Purpose in Life
I had the idea to use The Wizard of Oz theme. I said we are Dorothy and we are going on a journey in life. Our purpose is to make it back "HOME" to our Father In Heaven and become like Him, but only through our Savior Jesus Christ. I said that Glenda the Good Witch is like our parents, and leaders who are guiding us down which path we should follow (Yellow Brick Road) We have our Ruby Red Slippers to help us get Home (Holy Ghost) There are times we need good intellect (brain) compassion (heart) and No Fear (fear) to get through this journey. The Wizard is the gospel, it tells us HOW to get back to safety. Problem is however, The Wicked Witch of the West (Satan) is going to throw some Flying Monkeys at us (drugs, porn, immodesty, cheating and so on...) in our path. At the end, I handed out a little zebra print box with a sucker I made out of oreo's dipped in melted Pink Waco's and tried to free hand a crown on it. Then I handed out dipped pink marshmallows in white chocolate with the quote about Royal Birth.
