How do Bishoprics Orient new YM and YW Class Presidencies?

To find the orientation guideline for bishoprics on the church website go to:

www.childrenandyouth.churchofjesuschrist.org

1. Select “Church-Supported Resources for Leaders”

2. Scroll down and select “Quorum and Class Presidency Orientation” (It’s the last entry in the Service and Activities section and just above the Personal Development section.)

OR

https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/bc/content/ldsorg/content/pdf/children-and-youth/PD60009511/PD60009511_000-Quorum-Class-Training.pdf?lang=eng

(direct link)

The new guide says:

“Bishoprics have a responsibility to orient newly called Aaronic Priesthood quorum and Young Women

The orientation covers:
Being called of God
Ministering to those you serve
Administrative responsibilities
Planning meetings and activities

The guide includes a printable handout for the youth to fill out and take notes on. The orientation can be given in ward youth councils or other settings. As directed by the bishop, YM and YW leaders could also review these resources in a class or quorum presidency meeting
