Celebrate your calling as a Visiting Teacher!

Our new Visiting Teaching Gifts are out and ready to go... and with that comes a sigh of relief (on our end) and another "to-do" on your list! A sister in my ward gave a Visiting Teaching "thought" today in Relief Society, and I really enjoyed her thoughts. She read some quotes from the "Daughters in my Kingdom" book, talked about some personal experiences she has had with VT, and ended with a challenge to us that no matter what our experience has been in the past with VT (whether it be good, bad, or NO experience) - that today is the start of a new month and that we can start fresh this month by being a better Visiting Teacher. Just like we make New Years Resolutions, we can resolve NOW to not only make our visits, but be a friend to our sisters. So... with that, I will introduce you to our July 2012 Visiting Teaching Gifts!! The message title from the Ensign is, "Demonstrating our Discipleship Through Love and Service." A lot of this
