Round Rock Texas Stake Youth Pioneer Trek
believe hope
Dedicate
your trek: To honor those who
made this journey, pick a pioneer to walk for
on Trek. Your pioneer could be one of your
own ancestors (the first person in your family
to join the church) or any other Mormon
pioneer you are interested in. Find out all you
can about them. What is their story? When
and where were they born? What do they
have in common with you? Find out what this
particular person went through and how it can
help you today. You will have an opportunity
to share their story during the Trek.
