MISSIONARY-THEMED MUTUAL ACTIVITIES & SERVICE PROJECTS

If you are currently a young woman or young man in the youth programs of the Church, or a parent or leader of youth, you may be looking for ideas for ways to incorporate missionary work into Mutual activities.

Even though not all youth may not be planning to serve a full-time mission, many aspects of preparing for a mission (such as learning to speak in public, learning to cook & clean, etc) are skills that apply to any adult's life. Learning more about missionary life is helpful to any church member (whether they serve a full-time mission or not) because it gives them a better idea of what missionaries do and can help them be better member-missionaries.

For ideas on how to do this, check out my other blog "The Jolly Rogers Young Women Blog" that features mutual activity ideas that help youth start thinking about missionary work, preparing for missionary service, and doing service for current missionaries.

All of these ideas can be used for YW activities or adapted for Combined YM/YW activities. It's never too early to start thinking about mission preparations!
