New Beginnings Court

Jen F. shared this cute script for a new beginnings court trial. Basically each girl is brought up to “testify” of some of her experiences living the gospel and young women’s values. This is a good way to get to know the girls, spotlight the good things they’re doing, and makes for an fun activity. I think this would also make a great standards night and could be altered to…
