61. Today I am Grateful to be a Visiting Teacher

I love the Visit Teaching program! This is a program that is run through the Relief Society organization (Women’s group) of the church. Each woman is assigned a companion and usually 2 or 3 women to visit with. We are expected to visit with them in their homes once a month whenever possible. During this visit we get to know the girls we are assigned a bit better, find out if there is anything they need help with and share a spiritual message. With recent ward (congregation) boundary changes and lots of new people in the ward there was a major reorganizing of the visit teaching routes. I was excited to get my route and learn who I was assigned to visit with. I know one of the girls pretty well but my companion and another girl we visit I don’t know very well. I am looking forward to getting to know these girls more! This program is a wonderful way to see that the temporal and spiritual needs of the Relief Society members are met.
