Plan a gathering
Encourage young adults and graduating high school seniors to participate together at locally planned gatherings. A thoughtful local experience can help participants feel welcomed, connected, and supported.
Support meaningful participation
- Integrate the Devotional into Your Gathering Plans. Including personal invitations for institute classes and invitations for graduating seminary seniors to attend with young adults at a specific location, date, and time (see Creating Your Gathering Plan).
- Designate a Responsible Leader at Each Location. To ensure the post-event survey is completed for both institute- and stake-sponsored gatherings (see Broadcast Post-Event Survey).
- Coordinate through Stake Communication Councils. Align invitations, timing, and messaging across institutes, seminaries, and stakes (see Communication Councils: A Guide for Priesthood Leaders).
- Use approved resources. Refer to the November guidebook for current communication guidance and resources.
