Invite all young single adults within the boundaries of our stake to come unto Christ (Moroni 10:32-33) and be converted unto Him (Alma 23:6-7,13) so that they can regularly experience the effects of the Atonement in their life (Mosiah 4:2-3, 5:2, 7).
Measurement
- The feelings of members of the stake presidency as we interview and participate in meetings.
- Sacrament meeting attendance
- Percent of members with a current temple recommend (limited or full use)
Method
- Teach by the power of the Spirit the doctrine of Christ (2 Nephi 31; 3 Nephi 11:31-41; 27:13-21) and help stake members experience the joys of:
- Faith in Jesus Christ
- Repentance
- Making, keeping, and renewing covenants
- Receiving the Holy Ghost
- Enduring to the end
- Encourage active participation in Institute, Family History, and other sponsored activities where they can develop friendships with and serve others who are striving to come unto Christ.
- Repeatedly encourage private religious behaviors:
- Study the scriptures daily, especially the Book of Mormon
- Kneel in prayer morning and night
- Be worthy of, hold, and regularly use a current temple recommend
- Follow the prophet by adhering to the standards in For the Strenght of Youth
- Act, and not be acted upon (see 2 Nephi 2:26)
Desired Result
We believe this effort will foster real growth in the lives of the young single adults of the Provo YSA 19th Stake.
