Young Womens "P" party

I was in charge of a personal progress mutual this week for the Young Women in our ward and we had a "P" party! Everyone dressed up in stuff that started with a P, the girls set goals for their personal progress, played some games, and had "P"snacks (pull-aparts, pastries, peanut m&ms, pretzels, etc.)
One of the things I came across while preparing for this, was a quote by President Ezra Taft Benson found in the Personal Progress book. I love it.
"Give me a young woman who loves home and family, who reads and ponders scriptures daily, who has a burning testimony of the Book of Mormon. Give me a young woman who faithfully attends her church meetings, who is a seminary graduate, who has earned her Young Womanhood Recognition Award and wears it with pride! Give me a young woman who is virtuous and who has maintained her personal purity, who will not settle for less than a temple marriage, and I will give you a young woman who will perform miracles for the Lord now and throughout eternity."
If the girls didn't get anything other than this statement from our "P" party, I would consider it a successful evening.
