Divine Roles

Core:

Young Women

You have divine roles as a daughter of God -now and in the future: daughter, sister, wife, mother, nurturer, etc.

1. In your Young Women Personal Progress read "Divine Nature" "Required Value Experiences" including each of the scriptures. Even if you have completed this in the past do it again now. 
2. Type or hand write and come prepared to share your impressions about divine feminine qualities and your understanding of and appreciation for womanhood. 
3. Start at least one value experience and include in your paper what you are working on. I invite you to share and inspire us with what you are working on.  

Young Men

You have divine roles as a son of God -now and in the future: son, brother, full-time missionary, husband, father, priesthood bearer, provider, presider, protector, etc.

1. In your Young Men Duty to God read "Spiritual Strength" "Understanding Doctrine" Learn and Act. Even if you have completed this in the past do it again now. (I have linked to Deacons but it is the same for Teachers and Priests) For our purposes study "The Priesthood and Priesthood Keys".
2. Type or hand write and come prepared to share your impressions and what you have learned about "The Priesthood and Priesthood Keys".
3. Learn and reflect on what your priesthood duties (select the proper office that you hold: deacon, teacher, priest) are and evaluate how you are doing at fulfilling them. Come prepared to share what your priesthood responsibilities and privileges are and include them in your paper. I invite you to share and inspire us with blessings you have experienced as you have fulfilled these priesthood responsibilities.

Journeyman:

Before working on level 2 do level 1; then work on the following:

1. Do a word study for "genius".
2. Type or hand write a list of some of your natural abilities? Add to this list things you seem drawn to, very interested in? Ask a parent, other family member, and close friend what they would add to the lists. 
3. Choose a skill to work on developing that relates to something on your list. Include in your writing what you are working on. You are welcome to bring something to teach or show us related to this. 

Master:

Before working on level 3 do levels 1 and 2; then work on the following:

1. Read in "True to the Faith" "Patriarchal Blessings" 
2. Read this great article that helps answer questions about patriarchal blessings such: How do I know if I'm ready? How can I prepare? How old do I have to be for a blessing? and many others. 
3.  If you haven't received your blessing, prayerfully consider if now is the time to receive yours; if you have received it, prayerfully read it and note things in there that are pointed out about your personal, specific divine nature and missions.
