Adults accompanying youth groups should prepare to actively participate with their youth.

Local Family History Consultants are an excellent resource to bring with any group and will provide continuity after your visit. If a Ward Family History Consultant is not available, invite the High Priest Group Leader or one of his assistants to come for the same reasons listed above. | Adults accompanying youth groups should prepare to actively participate with their youth.
