Visiting Teaching

August 2012 Visiting Teaching Message

Here is a link to this month's message, "Taking Action in Time of Need."  This addresses the aspect of visiting teaching where our sisters know that if they have problems, we will help them, without being asked.

     Sister Julie Beck stated, “As committed disciples of the Savior, we are improving in our ability to do the things He would do if He were here.  We know that to Him it is our caring that counts, and so we are trying to concentrate on caring about our sisters rather than completing lists of things to do. True ministry is measured more by the depth of our charity than by the perfection of our statistics.”

     As visiting teachers we will know we are successful in our ministry when our sisters can say:

1.      My visiting teachers help me grow spiritually.

2.      I know my visiting teachers care deeply about me and my family; and

3.      If I have problems, I know they will help me. 

Please minister to your sisters this month, and report any service that you rendered to those you visit teach.
