2015 Year at a Glance Calendar
A fantabulous way of feeling on top of things and giving the YW (and parents) an idea of what to expect for the year is to have a 2015 planning meetings with your presidency. This meeting takes a bit of time, but it SO worth it!! It is awesome to have all your activities for the year on one paper! You can also shrink it down and give each YW family a magnetic copy of it at New Beginnings.

2015 Combined Youth Planning Meeting
A fabulous way to ensure the 2015 Combined YW/YM activities are based on becoming more like Christ, the 2015 mutual theme, and what they are studying (Come Follow Me) in church is to have a combined planning meeting.
Who attends: The Bishopric, YW and YM Presidencies, as well as, all quorum and class presidents (not the whole presidency, just the president)
How long does it take: About 2 hours
Why do you do it: Each month's YW/YM combined activity will be based on the Come Follow Me topic for that month, as well, as the four categories from Luke 2:52 "And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favour with God and man." Thinking "planning with a purpose"!
How do you do it:
#1: Divide the chalkboard into four categories according to Luke: 1) Gaining knowledge for wisdom, 2) Physical for grow in stature, 3) Spiritual for favour of God, and 4) Service for favour of man.
#2: Each individual is given 20-ish Post It notes and writes down activities they wish to have in 2015.
#3: Everyone takes their Post It notes up to the board and sticks them into the category that best fits.
#4: Once complete, everyone votes for their most favorite 12 activities. Tallies are taken and the 12 activities with the most votes (and bishopric approval) are then plugged into the Come Follow Me month they fit into best.
