Church Materials for Priesthood Leaders and Military Members
For over 60 years, the Church has provided the Military Scripture Set (English only) to members serving in the military. In 2003, an updated version of the book Principles of the Gospel was again included in the set. Principles of the Gospel and the Serving Your Country brochure will soon be made available to Church members serving in the military in non-English-speaking countries, beginning with Spanish and Portuguese. This will be a great blessing to many Church members throughout the world. The military section of the Online Store provides a complete listing of materials for military members.
