The 2014 Mutual theme is an invitation to the youth of the Church to “come unto Christ,” youth leaders say. It is an opportunity to invite Latter-day Saint youth to “partake of the enabling power of the Atonement,” said Sister Bonnie L. Oscarson, Young Women general president. Church leaders announced the theme—“Come unto Christ, and be perfected in him, and deny yourselves of all ungodliness” (Moroni 10:32)—this fall. “As you draw near to the Lord, you will have a desire to serve others,” said Brother David L. Beck, Young Men general president. Leaders are encouraged to use the theme to enrich Mutual opening exercises, as a topic for sacrament meeting talks by youth, or to provide focus for youth activities such as camp, youth conference, and devotionals. Resources for introducing the theme, including videos and music, will be available to leaders on LDS.org by the end of 2013.
