May 13 — The Church will begin a new curriculum starting in September for the youth. They have also updated the booklet For the Strength of Youth as well and it will go along with their new program. In preparation for the new curriculum the youth are encouraged to start reading one chapter of the guide a week beginning May 6th. This is going to be a huge change for the youth, there will be an app they can download, a magazine, and special music that will go along with the new program.
As Michelle and I began going through the new For the Strength of Youth booklet we found many things that broke our hearts for the young people who will participate in this new curriculum.
It begins with a message from the First Presidency it says (page 2)–
“We love you and we have confidence in you. You are truly among Heavenly Father’s choice spirits, sent to earth at this time to do important things.”
