    Worries. We have cut in half the number of quorum meetings. We have now reduced the number of adults leading them. I’m concerned that bishoprics will struggle to delegate to EQ/RS, and this will put additional strain on them. In my ward specifically, the bishopric members aren’t great with youth.

      I don't think number of adults in class or at activities will change.

        That will need to change over time. We will need to rethink what makes someone a good candidate for bishop and counselors. Being great with youth isn’t going to be merely important—that is the job.

          Edit: I guess it was released 7 months ago. My bad.

          That was beautiful.

              That's the first time I've seen it so I'm glad you posted it; it is great. I'm very high on JustServe.org and the IRC may be my favorite non-Church /BYU charity.

                New temples announced in women’s session. Among them are temples in Orem and Taylorsville.

                  YW get a new theme. It makes clear that brevity is not a quality highly valued at Church HQ at the moment.

                    I foresee a lot of 12-year-olds being asked to memorize that.

                      And they will do it and live. Good grief, people, it’s a couple of paragraphs.

                        But it sounds hard.

                        For all this His anger is not turned away, but His hand is stretched out still.

                        Not long ago an obituary appeared in the Salt Lake Tribune that said the recently departed had "died doing what he enjoyed most—watching BYU lose."

                          I was called as Scout Master a week before it was announced that the Church was leaving scouts. On Wednesday, I was called as Young Men’s President. I don’t think the Lord wants me working with youth.

                            That's a testimony builder TBH.

                                Thanks for sharing. I hadn't seen that either. That was excellent.
