The upcoming adjustments to the Sunday class meeting schedule include a change to what Aaronic Priesthood quorums and Young Women classes will study in their meetings.
Starting in September 2026, lessons will focus on truths in the updated “For the Strength of Youth: A Guide for Making Choices,” which is available digitally now and will be available soon in print.
The updated edition contains 12 chapters, with one chapter designated for study each month. The For the Strength of Youth magazine will offer additional resources to support each monthly theme.
The message from the First Presidency in the beginning of the guide says, “This guide will help you build a solid foundation for making choices to stay on the path that leads to eternal life. It will help you prepare to make sacred covenants in the temple, prepare to serve a mission, and find joy in following Jesus Christ throughout your life.”
Speaking about the update, Young Men General President Timothy L. Farnes said: “Living prophets have given us the FSY guide. It’s simple but powerful. It will help young men and young women focus on Christ, know His doctrine, and listen to the Spirit. This guide will help youth walk in confidence, rely on His power, and move forward with hope in a challenging world. I find it helpful as a daily part of my scripture study.”
Young Women General President Emily Belle Freeman has explained that the guide has three things in each chapter: eternal truths, invitations, and promised blessings. And the book has critical core doctrines “that will help us to know how to live out these eternal truths, how to accept these invitations to act, and then how to prepare to receive the promised blessings.”
