2014 Church Curriculum Announced

Can you go digital?

There are many of us that have gone digital.  We bring our smartphones, iPads, and notebooks to church for our scriptures, Ensign articles etc. Can you do that for your Relief Society and Priesthood class, unless you are a teacher (or even if you are a teacher)?

Can you go digital in 2014 and save the ward and the church on curriculum expenditures?

See what LDS.org has to say about next year's curriculum.  (Coped from LDS.org)

Beginning on January 1, Church members worldwide will begin studying new curriculum for 2014. A link to the Instructions for Curriculum 2014 and the list of manuals for Melchizedek Priesthood, Relief Society, Primary, Sunday School, Young Men, and Young Women can be found online at lds.org/manual/2014.

Digital
Students and teachers are encouraged where possible to use digital versions of these materials, which can be found online at lds.org/manual and in the LDS Gospel Library mobile app.

Print
Before ordering, consider the following questions to help you avoid ordering more printed copies than needed:
·  How many printed copies of each item does your unit already have available?

·  How many teachers and members use digital versions of materials rather than printed copies?
