STEP 1: LEARNING
When the men receive the Melchizedek Priesthood, they enter into the oath and covenant of the priesthood.
Learn about the oath and covenant, read Doctrine and
Covenants 84:33-44 and “Melchizedek Priesthood” in True to the Faith (pages
101-2). Then, with the help from your parents or leaders, plan a time when you
can teach others what you have learned
(for example, YW meeting, sacrament meeting, or family home evening).
Consider the following in your studies:
Personal
worthiness and testimony.
Gospel
knowledge.
Christlike
attributes.
Work
habits and physical health.
STEP 2: CREATE A PROJECT
Create a project that will apply what you’ve learned by do
the following
Read
the entire Book of Mormon. In a journal, write what you learn from your study
and write specific examples from your life that show how consistent scripture
study gives you power to resist temptation.
Interview 2 Melchizedek Priesthood holders (such as your
father or bishop in your ward) Ask them questions such as the following, and
write their answers:
1.
What are the duties of an elder?
2.
What is the difference between having the
authority of the priesthood and holding priesthood keys?
3.
What would you recommend I do to understand and
help others prepare for the Melchizedek Priesthood?
4.
What experiences have you had in which you were
able to serve others by exercising the Melchizedek Priesthood?
5.
How has holding the Melchizedek Priesthood
blessed your life?
6.
How do you perform the ordinances of the
Melchizedek Priesthood (such as consecrating oil, administering to the sick,
and bestowing the gift of the Holy Ghost)?
STEP 3: REPORT YOUR EXPERIENCES
Write in your Journal what you have learned from carrying
out your project and how it has helped you understand the Melchizedek
Priesthood. Present what you have learned to your family, Young Women, leaders
or bishop.
