Stand and Shine Magazine Summer 2014 | Page 5

About Stand & Shine Welcome to the Summer issue of Stand & Shine Magazine! We’ve been overwhelmed with all of the support during the last few months and want to say a big THANK YOU to all of the amazing young women and women who have contributed to our online blog and this issue. Stand & Shine Magazine is a positive, uplifting eMagazine for LDS Young Women. It adheres to gospel standards while focusing on topics such as fashion, spirituality, health, beauty, service, creating, and more! Our purpose is to work with LDS Young Women and Women to create a source of positive media and influence in today’s not-so-positive world. Behind the Scenes: Who We Are Hi there! We are the creators and chaos behind Stand & Shine Magazine....and we’re sisters! Marci, Kelsey, and Maggie. We grew up fighting over the bathroom and sneaking things out of each other’s bedrooms. But now that we’re “old” we get along just dandy! And we each have a great desire to help LDS Young Women know of their great importance and value. We each bring a unique flair and style to the magazine and hey, maybe one of these days we’ll actually get pictures of ourselves taken instead of using these ones with our family’s arms and heads showing randomly. Haha. Anywho, we have enjoyed this opportunity to send our thoughts and ideas and testimonies out into the world!!! 5
