A Message for those who are Home Teachers

Written by Administrator | 05 April 2012

Brethren, home teaching is not just another program. It is the priesthood way of watching over the Saints and accomplishing the mission of the Church. Home teaching is not just an assignment. It is a sacred calling.



Home teaching is not to be undertaken casually. A home teaching call is to be accepted as if extended to you personally by the Lord Jesus Christ.



My good brethren of the Melchizedek Priesthood and the Aaronic Priesthood, home teaching is an inspired program.



It is the heart of caring, of loving, of reaching out to the one—both the active and the less active.



It is priesthood compassionate service.



It is how we express our faith in practical works.



It is one of the tests of true discipleship.



It is the heart of the activation effort of the Church.



There is no greater Church calling than that of a home teacher. There is no greater Church service rendered to our Father in Heaven’s children than the service rendered by a humble, dedicated, committed home teacher.
