As directed by the stake presidency, the stake Melchizedek Priesthood committee begins training new Melchizedek Priesthood leaders immediately after their call. Initial training material may include the scriptures, this handbook (the Melchizedek Priesthood Leadership Handbook), training videocassettes, and other instructions for priesthood leaders. The training focuses on helping quorums and groups accomplish the mission of the Church. Training continues in priesthood interviews with the stake presidency and regular meetings with members of the stake Melchizedek Priesthood committee. Quarterly stake priesthood leadership meetings may also be used to train priesthood leaders.
