Personal Progress helped two young women in Kyiv, Ukraine, make positive changes in their lives and in their families' lives.

"Sometimes one person can change everything around him or her. If you start with yourself—if you have courage to start with yourself—then everything around you may order itself in time," says Katya Kalashnikova from Kyiv, Ukraine.

Through faith and Personal Progress, Katya Kalashnikova and Ivana Rubanchuk were able to find that courage, giving them the opportunity to strengthen their families and prepare for the temple.
