Many of the 2019 Mobile YWRs prepared a report for their district conventions sharing the highlights of their experience in Mobile. We encourage you to reach out to these young women and ask them to help recruit the candidates for your 2021 YWRs. Soon some of their report videos will be uploaded to the Young Women in Mission webpage. We will notify you when these are available for you to access and use as a recruiting tool.
The Committee on Young Women is planning an intensive program which will immerse these young women into what LWML is all about. It is our goal that they will return to their districts, zones, and local groups ready to share what they have learned and to intensify their service to the Lord through our organization.
