{Personal Progress} ‘Riesens’ To Do Personal Progress

By [email protected] (Sheena Perron) A few weeks ago as I was grocery shopping (down the candy aisle) I had an idea for a Personal Progress incentive. Have you ever tried ‘Riesens’? If not, they are delicious…just saying. This incentive that I am sharing today shares different reasons why Personal Progress is important and why we need to do it. I began by (eating the first entire bag of Riesens) thinking…

How to be a Personal Progress Mentor

By Kristin We are trying to encourage the young women in our ward who have completed, or are near completion of Personal Progress, to mentor others. I wanted to give our young mentors some training, to learn how to mentor well. This document will help them to understand basic principles of mentorship: developing a relationship of trust, making goals, listening, following up, and celebrating successes! They can also use it…

{Personal Progress} ‘Riesens’ To Do Personal Progress


A few weeks ago as I was grocery shopping (down the candy aisle) I had an idea for a Personal Progress incentive.

{Personal Progress} 'Riesens' To Do Personal Progress


Have you ever tried ‘Riesens’? If not, they are delicious…just saying.

This incentive that I am sharing today shares different reasons why Personal Progress is important and why we need to do it.

I began by (eating the first entire bag of Riesens) thinking of reasons why we should do personal progress. I decided to look on lds.org, but then I realized that the reasons are right in front of us in the Personal Progress booklets.


I looked through the booklet at each value and picked 2 reasons for each value. Here are some that I chose:
{Personal Progress} 'Riesens' To Do Personal Progress
As I looked through the booklet I saw the many, many reasons why these young women (and we) should be doing their personal progress.


I created these cute little ‘Riesen’ wrappers with the different reasons that I saw. On the bottom of each reason is the corresponding Value experience for that reason. 
I printed the wrappers out and then wrapped each ‘wrapper’ around the
Riesen candy, as seen below.

{Personal Progress} 'Riesens' To Do Personal Progress

After I had all my candies wrapped with my Personal Progress ‘Riesen’ wrappers, I placed them inside of some clear plastic rectangular boxes/tubes I had. You could also place these in small jars, bags, etc.
Then I attached a tag that reads,
“Need a ‘Riesen’ to do Personal Progress? Here’s a few…”

The girls can pick a piece of candy out and read the reason why they should do their personal progress. Then they can look which experience goes with that reason and look it up in their booklet….and Do It!

Do your YW need a few ‘Riesens’ to do their Personal Progress?

 I hope you enjoy my Personal Progress ‘Riesen’ treats and make some for your YW. I do know that Personal Progress is an amazing program that can strengthen the young women and help them to come unto Christ. By participating in Personal Progress they can strengthen their testimonies and help them understand their divine potential.
I would love to hear if you make these for your YW, so come back and tell me what you did.

Thanks so much for stopping by. Have a great day!

YWIE – Be Who You Were MINT to Be

By JOLLY ROGERS Our Mint themed YWIE was a big hit! We had a short program about Personal Progress and our theme “Be Who You Were MINT (Meant) To Be”, followed by the presentation of special top-secret compliment jars (that the YM helped us with), then a fancy array of chocolate-mint refreshments & viewing of the girls’ display tables.   We also introduced a new aspect of our YWIE that…

Group wall post by Cheryl Elliott Belnap

By Cheryl Elliott Belnap Cheryl Elliott Belnap : I just came up with a clever (I think) way of pairing kids up. Write sm scripture references and key words on individual post it notes and stick one under each chair. The kids locate their post it note and then have to find the mate to what’s written on their note. They become partners for what ever you are pairing them…
