Elder David A. Bednar...

I invite the young people of the Church to learn about and experience the Spirit of Elijah. I encourage you to study, to search out your ancestors, and to prepare yourselves to perform proxy baptisms in the house of the Lord for your‍ kindred dead .

Youth Conference Teams



Youth Conference Teams

As a team, you will work together to ensure that each young man and young woman is able to complete these assignments before Youth Conference on July 19, 2013:

Temple recommends for all that qualify and are interested in attending the Temple to do baptisms for the dead during our Youth Conference activity on July 19th.  Those that do not wish to attend the Temple Baptisms activity will have a special activity for them during the same time slot.  When the Temple Baptisms are complete the team will meet back together for an activity outside the temple.

·         Each of the team members will work together to obtain:
·         Log in and password for Family Search (this requires a member record number).  Maria Miller and Tessa Butterfield have offered to help any teams set up their youths' accounts on familysearch.org.  (They can be reached at 353-4149 or 823-4185)
·         Three family names to take to the temple for baptisms.

·         Each of the team members of the group will need to:
·         Bring a set of Church and casual "active" clothes for the Conference.
·         Become familiar with a story in their own personal family history that they will be able to share during one of the breakout sessions.
·         Bring their own family Fan Chart that can be obtained on familysearch.org, with them to the conference on July 19th.

·         Youth leaders in each team will help to:
·         Bring youth together to work on the above assignments before conference.
·         Invite all members of your team to become involved in family history, not only for the youth conference, but before and after.
·         Collect permission forms from the youth on your team that will be attending the Youth Conference on July 19th.

·         As a team, work together (everyone - even those who may not be able to attend the Youth Conference on July 19th) to accomplish the goals and assignments given to us by our Stake President;

President Le Baron

·         Indexing He has challenged the youth of our stake to do a combined 400,000 indexed names by the end of the year.
·         Find 2 or 3 family names.
·         Learn, Act and Share it with someone else.
·         Rescue - Use this family history effort to rescue those youth in our stake who are not fully active in the gospel.
·         Infect the stake (adults) with this wonderful spirit of family history.
