October: Becoming More Christlike
“Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life” (John 14:6).
The outlines in this unit will help the young women learn about and develop Christlike attributes. Jesus Christ has commanded all of us, “Be perfect even as I, or your Father who is in heaven is perfect” (see 3 Nephi 12:48). Developing the attributes of Christ will help the young women fulfill their divine potential as daughters of God. They will need these attributes as they face the challenges of living in perilous times and as they prepare to raise righteous families in the future.
Personal Progress
The following activities from Personal Progress relate to the lessons in this unit:
- Show love to someone who may need special attention or help (see Good Works value experiences 3, 5, and 6,Personal Progress, 54–55).
- Complete any of the Good Works value experiences inPersonal Progress and report on what they did in the next class.
- Plan and carry out a small act of service, either individually or for a Mutual activity.

New Era Message: Becoming More Christlike
This month your Sunday lessons will focus on becoming more Christlike (see lds.org/youth/learn and page 40). One lesson asks, “How can I become more Christlike?” As you discuss the topic in your family, classes, and quorums, you can use the May 2013 Ensign or conference.lds.org, because “all of the messages of this conference help us follow in the footsteps of our Savior, whose example and teachings define the path for every follower of Jesus Christ” (Dallin H. Oaks, “Followers of Christ,”Ensign, May 2013, 96). In his talk, Elder Oaks also shares how Christ set the example for us in:
Keeping the commandments.
Praying.
Serving in God’s kingdom.
Loving one another.
Forgiving others.
Helping the poor and needy.
