The Venturing program is a flexible tool for working with youth and inspiring them to live according to values and purpose. This flexibility gives Venturing much strength. It also sometimes makes it feel difficult to grab hold to. By focusing on the aims and methods, in harmony with the purposes of the Aaronic Priesthood and the goals of mutual, this flexibility can be successfully incorporated into gospel-centered activities for priests quorums. Venturing provides additional techniques, tools, and recognitions to inspire the youth to live their standards. It provides a sense of belonging to a cause larger than an individual unit and a connection to the world at large. I hope that LDS units can strengthen their use of Venturing and find effective ways for it to meet the needs of priests around the nation.
Yours in Aaronic Priesthood Venturing,
