First, here’s an important pro tip: don’t forget that the Gospel Living app has a section for activity ideas! If you’re reading this on the app, check it out using the activities icon at the bottom of the screen!
Okay, now let’s hear the tips and ideas from youth!
Take Turns and Plan Together: “We take turns each week planning activities. This takes the stress off just one person, and we get a variety of ideas. Having an activity where you all plan together is also helpful. We love to play games, laugh together, and do service.” —Adelynne S.
Use Three Questions: “My class often plans activities based on 3 questions: What do we need to improve on? Who do we need to support? Is it time for an activity that takes less time and energy than other activities? With these things in mind, pray, ponder, and counsel together. You got this!” —Isabella R.
Make a Spiritual Frame: Here’s a specific activity idea. “You will need several Church magazines so you can cut out spiritual images or messages that are inspiring to you. Then place what you cut out in a frame in a unique arrangement.” —Florence M.
