Read Jacob 5 again, looking at the example of the Lord of the vineyard. See what kind of leader he is. Notice his patience, his willingness to listen to counsel, his love for those around him, and you will have begun to learn some lessons from the Lord of the vineyard.

Two dozen youth from the Dundee Second and Dundee Bingham Wards in the Dundee Scotland Stake recently took part in the first-ever Lord Provost of Dundee Youth Parade. More than 1,000 young people participated in the event, which was held to recognize the outstanding young people of Dundee, their talents, and their service to the people in the city.

After the parade through the town, the lord provost (mayor) addressed the crowd. Following this, some of the youth groups demonstrated activities such as soccer, hockey, cheerleading, tae kwon do, and baton twirling. The Dundee young men and young women were excited for the opportunity to represent the Church on this historic occasion and plan to take part in the event every year.
