For the Strength of Youth conferences, also known as FSY, are designed to help youth have fun as they apply the gospel in all aspects of their lives. At FSY, youth participate in five days of devotionals, classes and activities to help guide them in strengthening their faith in Jesus Christ and in feeling joy and belonging as they live the gospel.

In this episode of the Church News podcast, Church News reporter Mary Richards discusses the uplifting potential and divine inspiration behind these sessions with the Young Women and Young Men general presidency counselors: Brother Bradley R. Wilcox, Brother Michael T. Nelson, Sister Tamara W. Runia and Sister Andrea Muñoz Spannaus. Together, they talk about FSY and focus on how the 2025 youth theme, “Look unto Christ,” can impact the lives and growth of faithful youth worldwide.
