We LOVE interacting with the YOUTH!
A couple weeks ago we were invited to a multi-stake Youth Conference where the youth were doing a couple service projects to benefit our missionaries.
For one, they are making these photo folders full of Gospel Art pictures to be used in teaching lessons to investigators! They are wonderful!
We met a bunch of incredible youth in the Phoenix North and Deer Valley Stakes.
They were also making cute thank you cards for the missionaries...suits and ties for Elders and dresses for Sisters.
Last week we did a multi ward youth fireside that was incredible! They got such a good group of youth there. The chapel was packed!
We taught how to be a missionary NOW!
How to prepare yourself, what tools to use, what to say and NOT SAY!
We made a list of activities you could invite a friend to and then ROLE PLAYED!
They practiced bringing up the topic of Church or an activity and inviting a non-member friend.
NOW THEY KNOW THEY CAN DO IT! It becomes "REAL PLAY." We have a bunch of missionaries who were converted in their teens by their friends, so we KNOW how great their testimonies are!
They look the part of missionaries in EVERY WAY!
When I look at them I see them in a few years serving as faithfully as our missionaries here in Phoenix!
