THE WORTH OF WOMEN


A Special Day for Women

Barbara Barrington Jones



“THE WORTH OF WOMEN”



All talks have been approved through CES Correlation

Committee for Education Week and EFY

Sister Barbara Jones will offer a very memorable day with practical guidance and spiritual inspiration to the Women of your Stake in a day-long-conference as outlined below. Recent studies show that depression and low self-esteem are found in epidemic proportions in the women of the world. Many women suffer from loneliness, fatigue, stress and abuse in their daily lives, and Sister Jones will help them overcome these discouraging challenges.

SATURDAY 10:00 AM – 3:00 PM

10 - 11:30 The Worth of a Woman

In order to become an effective wife, mother and sister, a woman must realize her divine destiny and self worth and also appreciate her unique gifts and talents. The sisters will come to understand Satan’s trap of taking on too much and becoming overwhelmed with life. They will learn of the importance of taking time for themselves spiritually and relying on Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ to aid and comfort them in times of adversity and struggle. They will gain the confidence that can come when they learn to accept the Lord’s plan for them and their intrinsic worth as a daughter of God.

11:30 -12 Instant Changes for a Better Appearance

We have been repeatedly instructed to stay well-groomed and take care and pride in our appearance. This show of respect to others and to our Creator is not vanity but is the way our prophets throughout this dispensation have encouraged women to present themselves.

12 – 1 Lunch

1 – 2 She Who Laughs, Lasts . . .

One of the most powerful treatments to bring encouragement to others and joy in your own heart is laughter. Elder Eyring says, “Humor is the key to endurance.” The women will receive insight into how to use humor to help in everyday situations.

2 – 3 Whispers from Heaven

Barbara Jones will share her life story and conversion covering the power of the atonement, striving for a temple marriage, listening for the promptings of the Holy Ghost and developing a personal relationship with our Savior, Jesus Christ. She will share her realization, following the death of her husband, that eternal love transcends the veil.
