FIND A PIONEER ANCESTOR TO WALK FOR

We are asking each youth to find a pioneer name to learn about before Trek. 

 Hannah Belle Martin, Age 16

Learning about your pioneer ancestors will make your Trek experience more meaningful. 
If you do not have an ancestor who crossed the plains, find the name of someone who was a pioneer in other ways. This can be:

• an ancestor who was the first one to bring the gospel to your family 
• someone who came before you who has had a meaningful impact on your life
• someone who overcame great adversity or trials

After you have picked the name of an ancestor to walk for,

Bring your name to the Trek activity next Wednesday!

You will be making a keepsake with your ancestor's name on it that you will be able to take with you on Trek.

Continue to take the time to get to know your ancestor you are walking for. You will find a greater appreciation for who they were, your connection to them will become stronger, and Trek will be more significant. Ultimately, more meaning and purpose in our efforts to gather Israel will come to light.
