Miss & Jr. Miss
Our Miss Illinois Job's Daughter and Jr. Miss Illinois Job's Daughter both earn their title by competing in a pageant which tests their knowledge of Job's Daughters, recitation of a memorized part, an interview, and a stage walk-on with an introductory and final question. They both represent Job's Daughters around Illinois, promoting sisterhood and raising money for a charitable organization of their choosing.
