The Teachers and the Priests are no longer Scouts by default.  We picked one week a month where we separate out the Scouts (including the Blazer scouts) from the Teachers and Priests.

With the Teachers and Priests, we are taking turns asking returned missionaries in our ward to host the young men in their homes, feed them something typical from their mission, show them pictures and memorabilia, tell them stories, and talk about some of the challenges and highlights.

It’s been a massive success.  The  young men are very interested in hearing first hand accounts in a relaxed setting.
