Arise and Shine Forth

The new youth theme for 2012 for our church is Arise and Shine Forth. I am SO excited for this year! As I have searched around different sites, blogs, and {of course}... pinterest- I have found so many amazing ideas that we will be able to use this year. 

—“Arise and shine forth, that thy light may be a standard for the nations” (D&C 115:5)—“When young women join us at age 12, they are given a necklace with a torch on it to remind them to arise and shine forth,” said Elaine S. Dalton, Young Women general president. “This will happen as they serve others, as they live the standards found in the new For the Strength of Youth booklet, and as they remain worthy of a temple recommend and use it to do the work for those who did not receive the gospel in this life.”  Young Men general president David L. Beck said the same is true of young men throughout the Church: “Christ is our light. His light shines through us as we arise and follow Him,” he said. “We invite the young men to arise and shine forth by fulfilling their sacred priesthood duty to invite all to come unto Christ.”
