Dear Mom's of the Pinnacle Vista Young Women,

On Tuesday, November 15th at 7PM we are having our annual "Young Women's in Excellence" program. For this special evening, we would like either you or your spouse to take a few minutes to talk about the special gifts and talents that your daughter has been blessed with. The theme for this night is based on the new LDS media campaign "I Am A Mormon" which highlights the special and unique qualities of members of the church. All of our young women are special, and we know that as their mothers you know what is most special about them. Please write down a few sentences that you would like to share. Also, you could say something about an experience that your daughter had in the Personal Progress program that helped them develop a special quality or talent. On the night of Young Women's in Excellence, the young women will be sharing what is special about themselves, after each girl speaks either you or their father can share your thoughts about her. This will be a very special night. We appreciate your help. Please contact one of the Young Women's Presidency members if you have questions.

Thank you, Alisha Rose
