Youth of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints around the globe are invited to gather and celebrate sharing the light of Jesus Christ during a worldwide broadcast on Sunday, Oct. 27.
During a youth event in January, Church leaders encouraged young Latter-day Saints to continue developing themselves as disciples of Jesus Christ.
In this upcoming October youth event, Elder Ulisses Soares of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles, Young Women General President Emily Belle Freeman and Young Men General President Steven J. Lund will encourage youth to “declare his word among his people, that they might have everlasting life” (3 Nephi 5:13).
The broadcast will focus on the 2024 youth theme “I am a disciple of Jesus Christ” which comes from 3 Nephi 5:13 in the Book of Mormon.
In October 2023, youth around the world gathered to bear testimony of Jesus Christ to fill the world with testimonies for a 24-hour period in a first-of-its-kind event.

2025 Youth theme and resources
The youth theme chosen for 2025 is “Look unto Christ,” based on Doctrine and Covenants 6:36, which reads, “Look unto me in every thought; doubt not, fear not.” This will be emphasized in a worldwide youth broadcast held in January. It will also be taught in For the Strength of Youth conferences around the world.
