LIfe to Eagle Fireside

What:  The Manila Stake is Hosting a Life to Eagle Fireside

Where:  Manila Stake Center

When: September 23, 2018 at 7:00pm 

Why/Who:  This is put on by the Stake every six months and is and excellent opportunity to have your young men AND their parents learn about the Life to Eagle process in person.   This process is daunting to most young men and to be successful many young men need the support of you as their Eagle guide and their parents as we partner to help enable these you men to succeed with their Eagle projects.   

In the past we have had several great questions asked and answered, and the learning that takes place in this meeting saves scouts and families countless hours.  This meeting will help spur interest and action and makes a difficult process more understandable for the parents and more attainable for the young men.

Please share this with your Bishopric and Young Men’s Presidency and Advisors.  President Jepsen has asked that the Eagle guides in each ward personally reach out to each of the young men in your ward that is working towards their Eagle or is thinking about an Eagle project in the next 6-12 months. President Jepsen has also asked that each attend to learn and share your learning with others. 

Refreshments will be provided by the Stake Young Men’s Presidency.

May the Lord bless you as you guide and encourage the young men in your stewardship, 

Kelly Warner

Stake Eagle Coach Coordinator

September 18 - High Adventure Showcase

This year’s High Adventure Showcase night is September 18th 

Where: Stake Center Cultural Hall.

When: September 18, 7-8 pm (but feel free to come as early as 6 to set up so we can start right at 7)

Who: All YM/YW 14-18

* Each Group that went on a High Adventure should plan on creating a presentation.  Example: if the Teachers/Priests went on separate activities, they should each present but if they were combined it’s OK to have their own presentation.  The young men and women should take an active part in preparing and presenting the presentations.

* All YM/YW and leaders are invited to gather information from other wards in the stake for next years activities.  Take notes on ideas for things you may be interested in doing.

* We have a template page for each group to fill out and share with other interested parties.
