yeah the presidency of the church actually said they never meant for the young men to memorise it and it wasnt really supposed to be the theme they just put it out so we'd know i guess.. but i think most young men groups have kinda adopted it as our theme.

lol well first off, no we weren't supposed to memorise it, the bretheren (the presidency) felt that we should be memorising scriptures, so we can use them on a mission and it was never intended for us to memorise but i think most wards do it anyways.. but yeah haha.. i had them both memorised a year ago for helemans challenge up at helemans camp, but i'm not sure i can do the young womens anymore.. but i'm going to try and catch up on the other posts then i'll come back and try if i have time
