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.

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.
