Aliyah - Equipping children and youth for the journeyAliyah (ah-LEE-ah) is a Hebrew word meaning "a journey toward God." The challenge of equipping children and youth for this journey is reflected in the new Community of Christ resource called Aliyah.

Aliyah lessons are based on scripture, with emphasis on Doctrine and Covenants 163. Use these resources for church school, youth group meetings, junior church, or any time you want to connect children, youth, and families to the vision of the church.

Commentaries on Doctrine and Covenants 163 are also provided for adults. Enjoy the journey together!
