"The Lord will reward each of us according to our works."
Jose Tiexiera, Europe Area President
Palermo Zone - November 2014 |
The sister training leader for this zone is an avid baseball player. In her adestramento, she likened missionary work to a game of baseball. She told everyone how her father always said to her "You can't run to where the ball IS, you have to run to where the ball IS GOING." It's not the ball's job to get into the mitt. It's our job to catch the ball in our mitt by being in the right place at the right time. If we just stand in one place, we're not going to catch the ball. Baseball is a team sport and so is missionary work. We all have to work together for the win.

Preach My Gospel - Pg. 148
Set goals and make plans for investigators with a baptismal date. Review the Teaching Record for each person who will be baptized in the coming weeks. Talk about lessons you need to teach them. Consider how you can help them prepare for baptism and confirmation. Discuss investigators who were not baptized on their scheduled day. Carefully consider and discuss their needs. Set new goals and make plans that will help them progress toward a specific day and time when they can enter into the covenant of baptism and receive the ordinance of confirmation. On your Teaching Record, mark in pencil the principles you plan to teach and the commitments you will help them keep. Determine what you can do to help them receive these lessons and keep these commandments.
