LESSON and ANNOUNCEMENTS

Dear sisters,

The lesson today in RS was Chapter 12 in the George Albert Smith Manual. The title is " An Enthusiastic Desire to Share the Gospel ''.
I am including below a few important points from the lesson.
-What actions can we take to be called missionaries?
        -Be a friend to members and non members
        -Have positive feelings about people around you
-Reasons why we need to share the gospel
       -We love our neighbors
       -The world needs what we have
                   -Eternal families
                   -The knowledge that Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ are one and have physical bodies
                   -Priesthood authority and sacred ordinances
Tiffany Driggers shared her conversion story. She said that the key of her conversion was the love and care that the missionaries and members of the church showed to her.
Rebecca Balinski shared a story from her mission. One day, during her mission, she felt she needed to stop and talk to a man who was standing in the street. Apparently, this man started having a great love for Jesus Christ, the BOM, and the church. He showed his love by being very enthusiastic about the Gospel, always attending church, and carring the BOM everywhere with him.

QUOTES
"Missionary work is like visit teaching and home teaching to non members" Harold B. Lee
" If we fail to take advantage of our opportunities to teach the sons and daughters of God, who are not of our faith, who dwell in our midst, this Gospel of our Lord, He will require at our hands on the other side of the veil what we have failed to do" G. A. Smith
