Unlike modified version for teenage LDS girls, new theme for boys mentions ‘God,’ not ‘Heavenly Parents’

Latter-day Saint young men now will repeat a theme each week, just as their female counterparts have been doing for years.

Activity Days, which have been held for girls in the past, now will be called Primary activities, and will include boys and girls, though they will meet separately.

And there will be new rewards for both sexes who accomplish their individual goals.

These were among the details about The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints’ new “Children and Youth” program discussed Sunday in a 90-minute Face-to-Face presentation, broadcast globally from the Tabernacle on downtown Salt Lake City’s Temple Square.
