Each month, LDS youth around the world study a different doctrinal principle that is coordinated across Young Men, Young Women, and youth Sunday School classes.
The topic for June is Priesthood and Priesthood Keys. Young men will learn their priesthood duties and come to understand how they can bless Heavenly Father’s children through their worthy exercise of the priesthood. Young women will learn more about the priesthood and how it can bless them now and in all their future roles as daughters of God. These lessons will help both young women and young men learn that the priesthood is the power of God used to bless all of His children equally, both male and female.
Parents, grandparents, siblings, and leaders can help the youth learn these doctrines if they will study the doctrines themselves and regularly discuss the doctrines with the youth during the month. Below is a list of the lessons that may be taught during the month. Quorum and class presidencies and leaders will use the Spirit to determine what is taught.
You may also want to refer to the following resources:
- Read the Gospel Topic Priesthood.
- Read the chapters “Priesthood” and “Priesthood Organization” in the Gospel Principles manual.
- Read the chapter “The Keys of the Priesthood” in the manual Duties and Blessings of the Priesthood: Basic Manual for Priesthood Holders, Part B.
- Watch Mormon Messages videos about the priesthood (enter “priesthood” in the search box on that page).
- Watch recent videos about Strengthening the Family and the Church through the Priesthood.
The youth are encouraged to Learn the doctrine, Act upon it in some way, then Share what they have learned. Can you think of ways to help the youth Learn, Act, and Share?
