This activity was inspired from something we did when I was a youth, but I put my own spin on it. This was the first mutual activity we did this year that focused on our spiritual growth and my Beehives loved it. I was surprised at how well it was received!
Our missionaries provided me with several copies of the Book of Mormon for each girl to write their testimony on the inside cover. They were also given scrap paper to use to practice what they wanted to say. We saved the last ten minutes for each of them to get up and share what they wrote. We played uplifting music in the background to invite the spirit. It was eye opening for me as a leader to see how different all of them were. Each of young woman testified of something different and some even shared experiences. When they were done, they had the option to leave their copy on the table to give back to the missionaries or to give it to someone they know. I was thrilled to see a few girls hang onto theirs.
I below is a copy of my own testimony that I wrote during the activity. This makes for a great last minute activity! Enjoy!
