Bishops and Branch Presidents…
It occurs to me that I may not have ever explained to you why I’m visiting with high school seniors, as you may have heard.
I want you to know that I’ve been doing this, as much as they’ll meet with me, for years in hoping to just get acquainted with them. I don’t conduct a worthiness interview, I leave that for you.
I mostly visit with them about…
1) what was their HS experience like for them?
2) did Seminary play a role?
3) what kind of personal devotion habits (prayer, scriptures, etc) do they have now going into the rest of their lives?
4) is college and/or a mission on the radar? If so, when?
5) do they have plans to attend the YSA branch (we need you!)?
6) sometimes I’ll check to see if they’ve received a patriarchal blessing…and…
7) mostly, how much does the gospel mean in their lives as they enter adulthood?
Please know I am not trying to be intrusive, overstep you in your role as their priesthood leader or checking on how you, parents and ward leaders have done. I simply want to see what’s happening in the heads and hearts of the young members of our stake as they transition into adulthood.
In case you were wondering…
Thx
PrL
