How to Prepare

For the Stake Priesthood Leadership Session, we invite Aaronic Priesthood leaders to come prepared to share successes and challenges in your Aaronic Priesthood program. Areas to consider can include: a program led by the youth quorum presidency and planning/executing activities that align with the four youth program pillars and the needs of quorum members. We invite Elders Quorum leaders to come prepared to share successes and challenges in your Melchizedek Priesthood program. Areas to consider can include: ministering/caring for those in need, temple/family history work, and missionary work.

We encourage members to prepare for the Saturday Adult Session and the Sunday General Session by prayerfully reading the following:

• Preaching the Gospel of Peace by President Russell M. Nelson

• Make Time for the Lord by President Russell M. Nelson

Stake conference provides an opportunity to receive personal revelation as stake leaders share counsel and testimonies of Christ. We invite members to listen and follow promptings of the Spirit.

We love you and eagerly anticipate your participation in our upcoming Stake Conference.

Sincerely,

Your Stake Presidency
