Love Her Mother

I loved this talk as well. I used portions of this to get my Beehive Dads to help volunteer at our quarterly temple trips. A lot of my 13 year olds hadn't been to the temple with their Dads. Because temple attendance is a life-line for me and such an important part of our lives, I wanted to make sure the Beehives had a chance to go often. This was a great talk to quote from.


In Young Women we are helping your daughter understand her identity as a daughter of God and the importance of remaining virtuous and worthy to receive the blessings of the temple and of a temple marriage. We are teaching your daughter the importance of making and keeping sacred covenants. We are teaching her to commit now to live so that she can always be worthy to enter the temple and not to allow anything to delay, distract, or disqualify her from that goal. Your example, as her father, speaks louder than our important words. Young women worry about their fathers. Many express that their greatest desire is to be united eternally as a family. They want you to be there when they go to the temple or get married in the temple. Stay close to your daughter and help her prepare and remain worthy for the temple. When she turns 12, take her with you to the temple often to perform baptisms for your ancestors and others. She will cherish these memories forever.
