I just got the goosebumps reading through this and had to share!
The Young Women General Presidency just sent this out:
A Return to Virtue
"Now is the time for a return to virtue!"
The attribute and value of Virtue has been added to the Young Women theme.
"Virtue is a pattern of thought and behavior based on high moral standards. It encompasses chastity and moral purity."
The time has come for the young women of the Church to lead the world in a return to virtue. This is the time to be pure and to qualify for the guidance of the Holy Ghost. In the coming year, it is our desire that all young women and their leaders focus on the meaning of virtue, what young women can do to accept and act upon this value, and how this attribute can strengthen young women as they prepare to be worthy to make and keep sacred covenants and receive temple ordinances.
"I believe one virtuous young woman led by the Spirit can change the world."
