Young women of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and their friends, leaders and parents are invited to follow new Facebook and Instagram accounts just for them.

Young Women Worldwide is an initiative of the Young Women organization, and it launched this week on Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/youngwomenworldwide/ and on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/youngwomenworldwide/, quickly gaining tens of thousands of followers.

With the tagline of, “A community for young women, leaders, and parents,” the new Young Women general presidency wrote in a welcome post:

“We created this space intentionally for you. It’s a place where we will talk about Jesus Christ. It’s a place where we will learn how to become disciples and how to mentor others. It’s a place where we will talk about covenant relationship as beloved daughters of heavenly parents.”

The posts are also intended to be a place to find joy. And the presidency said they would love to hear from young women how they are living the gospel of Jesus Christ wherever in the world they are.

Messages are written by Young Women General President Emily Belle Freeman; her counselors, Sister Tamara W. Runia and Sister Andrea Muñoz Spannaus; members of the Young Women General Advisory Council; and young women themselves.

The posts include activity ideas, study prompts for weekly “Come, Follow Me” lessons stories from every day life and more.

“What is the hardest thing you are carrying right now? Where are you patiently waiting for healing to come? Are you in need of greater strength?” President Freeman asked in a recent post.

“If you are looking for strength beyond your own, reach for the Savior. He will reach your reaching. He will bring you strength.”
