Description

Helaman’s Vanguard – Stand with Courage. Lead with Faith. Live with Purpose.

Helaman’s Vanguard is an inspiring, hands-on discipleship program for LDS youth that draws from the legacy of Helaman’s 2,000 stripling warriors—young men who stood firm in battle because of their faith, discipline, and courage. This program helps youth cultivate the same strength of character through meaningful weekly activities rooted in gospel principles, leadership development, and personal growth.

Built to align with the four-part youth program of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, Helaman’s Vanguard transforms abstract gospel concepts into real, personal experiences—helping youth live their testimonies, not just talk about them.

In today’s world, discipleship demands more than belief—it demands bold action, commitment, and spiritual readiness. Like the young warriors of Helaman, youth are called to face challenges with faith, defend truth, and lead with integrity.
