Prayers are Answered



In primary the children sing:
“Heavenly Father are you really there,
And do you hear and answer every child’s prayer?”

In Relief Society we answer the question:
The errand of angels is given to women;
And this is a gift that, as sisters we claim:
To do whatso every is gentle an human,
To cheer and to bless in humanity’s name.

The purpose of visiting teaching is to minister.
·  Pray daily for [the sister you visit] and her family.
·  Seek inspiration to know her and her family.
·  Visit her regularly to learn how she is doing and to comfort and strengthen her.
·  Stay in frequent contact through visits, phone calls, letters, e-mail, text messages, and simple acts of kindness.
·  Greet her at Church meetings.
·  Help her when she has an emergency, illness, or other urgent need.
·  Teach her the gospel from the scriptures and the visiting teaching messages.
·  Inspire her by setting a good example.
(See “How Visiting Teachers Love, Watch Over, and Strengthen a Sister,” in Daughters in My Kingdom, page 123.)
The Purpose of Visiting Teaching is to Minister foundhere:  

I firmly believe that Relief Society visiting teaching is how our Heavenly Father answers our prayers.  I firmly believe that this is our sacred covenant when we are baptized.  I firmly believe that great friendships can be made through the simple act of monthly visiting teaching.  How great is a command to reach out to each other; to spiritually lift one another; and make monthly contact with each other! 
Gain a testimony of visiting teaching; gain a testimony of being a faithful visiting teacher.
