Last week our Stake decided to host a Duty to God Clinic. Each year in the past, the Stake provided a Merit Badge Clinic for all of the Scouts that wanted to participate. This year, our stake decided to put some focus on the DTG requirements for each of the young men in each of the Quorums in the Aaronic Priesthood. Out of all of the requirements for all three Quorums of the Aaronic Priesthood, they were able to locate similar requirements so that everyone could work on them at the same time. For the Priests, it was a section of the Duty to God that talks about visiting “the workplace of 3 occupations you are interested in.”. For the Teachers it was found in this requirement that asks the boys to, “Visit at least 3 places where people perform work you might enjoy.” And for the Deacons, it states, “Choose 2 careers you may be interested in doing someday.”

The boys were all brought together at the Stake Center and split up into 4 groups. There were two business professionals that had setup stations in the church, and two business professionals that were setup in their actual business offices. There was an Optholmologyst, Physical Therapist, Local TV Station Salesman, and a Taxidermist. Each of them talked about their careers and gave the boys a look at what it would be like to enter that profession. All of the boys had a good time and everyone that attended the clinic was able to pass of that requirement in their Duty to God books.
