Sisters,
it was such a privilege to meet with you for visiting teaching
interviews! We did forty interviews in two days alone and it was
wonderful to have that time to talk with you. Please remember you can
call us at any time for any reason.
We heard many wonderful stories about visiting teaching during our
interviews. One sister said Visiting Teaching is important because
we’re spiritual stewards over those we’re assigned to. So true! I hope
that if you don’t already have a testimony of visiting teaching, you
will challenge yourself to improve your efforts. You and your sisters
will be blessed! And if you feel you’re not connecting with the sisters
you visit teach – serve, serve, serve! Serve while you’re visiting
(help with a project) and serve in-between visits. Service creates a
quick path to meaningful relationships.
In the last conference, President Monson said love is the essence of the
Gospel. He said, “We cannot truly love God if we do not love our
fellow travelers on this mortal journey. Likewise, we cannot fully love
our fellowmen if we do not love God, the Father of us all.” Through
visiting teaching, we can develop and nurture that love for one
another. Thank you for all that you do!
With Much Love,
Karen Berndt
