This time was set apart to allow the Ward Young Woman Presidency to reinforce the purpose of camp.
Teach the Gospel of Jesus Christ
All camp leaders are teachers by example and testimony. Camp should be rich with both spiritual and temporal learning. As you plan what to teach at camp, pray and ponder about each young woman. Provide each young woman with opportunities to feel the Spirit. Help her apply the doctrines of the gospel to daily experiences. Teach her skills that will prepare her for her future and protect her and her family in an emergency. Whatever principles you choose to teach, keep in mind that everything you do at camp should help each young woman accomplish the following outcomes (see also Handbook 2, 10.1.1):
- Strengthen her faith in and testimony of Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ.
- Understand her identity as a daughter of God.
- Live a worthy life as she obeys the commandments and lives gospel standards.
- Receive, recognize, and rely on the promptings of the Holy Ghost.
- Prepare for her divine roles as a leader, wife, and mother.
- Understand and keep the covenants she has made.
- Develop friendships and have fun.
**With this direction in mind.... Please plan on having Ward Family Prayer and Scripture Study daily. Whether this is done in the morning or evening is up to the individual wards. This will be in addition to their 15 minute personal scripture study.
