Ask someone to offer the closing prayer.

Note to Facilitator: Bring a My Job Search workbook for each group member to the next meeting.

Start on page 1 of My Job Search in the next meeting. Although the materials will direct you to the First Presidency letter and principle 1 of My Foundation, continue on principle 7. Over the next 6 meetings, finish the remaining My Foundation principles and the final project.

During the 12th meeting, remember to complete another self-reliance assessment in the back of the My Path to Self-Reliance booklet.

Note to Facilitator:

After completing all twelve principles in My Foundation, remember to report the group’s progress at srs.lds.org/report so they can receive a certificate from LDS Business College.
