Lesson Summary: August 4, 2013

Jen W. gave an excellent lesson about visiting teaching. The lesson was centered around 2 principles of discussion. 1) Small and simple things  2) Visiting teaching.

Alma 37: 6-7   Alma gives the plates to Helaman and this is his counsel.

Flecks of Gold, a mormon message video was shared.



As you watch the video, what comes to your mind about which principles of the gospel you need to put into practice in your life?





What one thing in your life can be a good addition to a small and simple step?
example: scripture study: 5 versus a day "little fleck of gold".

Learning small and simple things prepares us for greater stewardship.

How can we strengthen faith, family and relief?  By Visiting teaching. Think about how visiting teaching has helped your life. Some sisters gave examples of how visiting teaching has blessed their lives.

"Count the caring, not the statistics" Sister Beck

Think about ministering to the needs of those you visit teach. Do you know what is going on in the lives of sisters you visit teach? Can the sisters we visit say "I know my visiting teachers love me?"
Think of visiting teaching as an opportunity not an obligation.

Ask those you visit teach: Would you allow us to help you.....?  What worries and concerns do you have?
