last years Wallow fire. These young men and women gave up their Saturday to work a job as dirty and labor intensive
as any I've seen. Unbelieveable how hard they worked.
I think about spring break. Seems to be a time for traveling to exotic places or lakes, to indulge in binge drinking and any number of activities that aren't wholesome. Summertime is the same thing for many. Not the youth here. Such impressive youth in this Church!
This Gospel helps the youth of the Church to live the standards and keep the commandments of God.

I know the Lord is close to our youth. They are the future.
President Gordon B. Hinckley loved the youth of the Church. Shortly after he was sustained as President of the Church in 1995, he said to the press: “We are particularly proud of our youth. I think we have never had a stronger generation of young men and women than we have today. … They are going forward with constructive lives, nurturing themselves both intellectually and spiritually. We have no fears or doubts concerning the future of this work.”

This is me in the bikini t-shirt getting ready to float down the big ditch with the young women. They love when I wear it!
