I have sent forth the fulness of my gospel by the hand of my servant Joseph”
(D&C 35:17).
The outlines in this unit will help the young women understand the Great Apostasy and how Jesus Christ restored His Church and the fulness of His gospel through the Prophet Joseph Smith. In this unit the young women can learn about the key events of the Restoration and discover the relevance of those events in their lives.
Learning about the Apostasy and Restoration can help young women value and appreciate the precious truths that God has restored in our day. The experiences they have in this unit can strengthen their testimony of the Book of Mormon, the mission of the Prophet Joseph Smith, and Heavenly Father’s love for His children.
Here is a Video I put together, there is one almost like it on a Mormon Message, but if you have a hard time getting it downloaded and burn, this one is ready to go, just download it and burn it, no need to convert it.
