January & February, our GOAL is to “Networking - Meet Someone New":
It is important for us to fully participate and get involved
in our communities and our neighborhoods.
Meet new people in your neighborhood and community. Elder Oaks taught us, “Remember, brothers and
sisters, this is the Lord’s Church. Let Him guide you through constant prayer. With
a prayer in your heart, talk to everyone you can. Don’t prejudge. Don’t
withhold the good news from anyone. Talk to everyone, and trust in the promised
power of the Spirit to give you the words you should say. Let them make the
decision to accept or reject your invitation. Over time, the Lord will put into
your path those who are seeking the truth. He is the Good Shepherd. He knows
His sheep, and they will know His voice, spoken through you, and they will
follow Him.”
"Nothing happens in missionary work until (we) find someone to teach. Talk with as many people as you can each day. It is natural to be somewhat apprehensive about talking to people, but you can pray for the faith and strength to be more bold in opening your mouth to proclaim the gospel." Preach my Gospel (2004, 156-157)
Use the Pass-along cards.
“We can carry a packet of these attractive pass-along cards and give
them to persons—even casual acquaintances—with whom we come in contact in the
daily activities of our lives. These cards are an ideal way to invite people to
investigate the additional truths we have to share. In a nonintrusive way, they
offer something precious, but the gift depends upon the choice and initiative
of the potential recipient. In our experience, a significant fraction of those
who telephone for the offered gift choose to have it delivered by those who can
tell them more.” Elder Dallin H. Oaks
