Develop a Personal Relationship with Each Individual

During this time in their lives, young single adults often make their most important life decisions, including marriage, education, career, friendships, Church activity, and their relationships with Heavenly Father and the Savior. Become acquainted with the circumstances of the young single Adults in your area, and then minister to the individuals one by one-just as the Savior does.

A Test of Faith

I was so happy when the day of my graduation come. Because I knew that this is the time for me to serve the Lord Jesus Christ. By being excited to process my missionary recommendation, I was so surprise that I thought I was healthy, but it did not show to my X-ray result. And so I need to take medication for six months, At first its hard for me to wait for six months, and to take medicine. My faith was tested if I should continue my desire to serve the Lord. I am thankful for all pf my friends (Bogabites) and all the members of Lagro Ward Fairview Philippines Stake for encouraging me to go on and continue with faith. This time I am waiting  for my call to be receive in Salt Lake. I am excited and at the same time nervous, but I know I will be assign where the Lord wants me to go, and that will be a promise land for me.

Preparing Your Future Missionary

The most important preparation for a mission is Spiritual. But parents can help their children develop practical skills as well.

          Missionary work is a new world for most young missionaries, a radical change of lifestyle. MANY WISH THEY HAVE BEEN BETTER PREPARED. But how should prospective missionaries prepare for the experiences that await them in mission field? And how can parents help?

          Clearly the most important kind of preparation is spiritual. Prospective missionaries should do all they can do to develop their testimony and to ensure that they are worthy of representing the Lord. But practical skills are also important in determining how successful a missionary is in the mission field.

           In an address to Church Leaders and parents of prospective missionaries, President Gordon B. Hinckley shared cautions about the demands of the work and the importance of adequate preparation. "This work is rigorous," he said. 'It demands mental sharpness and capacity. It demands faith, desire and consecration. It demands clean hands and a pure heart. The time has come when we must raise the standards of those who are called to serve as ambassadors of the Lord Jesus Christ.... We need missionaries, but they must be capable of doing the work.

            In addition to nurturing their children's spiritual development, parents can help their children become successful missionaries by guiding and encouraging them in at least three area: setting goals, learning how to work,and taking care of their emotional health.

 HELPING OTHERS RETURN TO THEIR CHRISTIAN FAITH

"Ye are the generation the Lord has saved For this day. You came out of the waters of baptism with the covenant and a promise to the Lord to represent Him in helping people  throw off their worldly ways and return to the blessings promise us if we would follow Him and live His gospel. You can help your Heavenly Father's children return to their christian faith and develop a faith in Him and return to his ways."

Our goal

"Love is of the very essence of life. Is the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. Yet it is more than the end of the rainbow. Love is at the beginning also, and from its springs the beauty that arches across the sky on a stormy day. Love is the security for which children weep, the yearning of youth, the adhesive that binds marriage, and the lubricant that prevents devastating friction in the home; it is the peace of old age, the sunlight through death."

President Gordon B. Hinckley 

HAPPILY EVER AFTER- By Jenny Phillips

"Temple Marriage is my goal to be with my future family, Jesus Christ and Heavenly Father"

The Gift of Compassion

"Those who grieve frequently find themselves alone. Missed is the laughter of children, the commotion of teenagers, and the tender, loving concern of a departed companion. The clock ticks more loudly, and four walls can indeed a prison make. I extol those who, with loving care and compassionate concern, feed the hungry, clothe the naked, and house the homeless. He who notes the sparrow's fall will not be unmindful of such service."

Pres. Thomas S. Monson

Batch 2013 "MISSION PREP CLASS"

Learn to Talk to People

One of the first things I learned is the importance of being able to carry on a conversation with people face-to-face. Texting and social media can be wonderful tools, but they cannot replace the dynamic exchange that takes place while you’re simply conversing with someone. If you are in the grocery line, talk with the person next to you, even if it’s simply about the weather.

The best place to start is in your own home. Have conversations with your family. Talk with your parents and siblings about various things, and tell them how you feel. Learn how to express yourself. Your missionary efforts will be more successful if you can lessen your fear of talking to people, especially to complete strangers, about things that matter to you.

Talking to strangers can be hard, but it’s a reality of missionary work—you will be talking with strangers for the majority of your mission. The more you can learn to look someone in the eye and share your feelings, the greater the opportunities you will have to invite the Spirit to be a part of your conversations. You will also learn that even though folks may be “strangers” to you initially, all are in reality your brothers and sisters, so do not be afraid to “open your mouths” (D&C 33:8–9).

Learn to Listen and Then Act

You will be spending a lot of time listening to those you teach. They will share with you their thoughts, feelings, and even their doubts. Learn to sincerely listen. This will help you to more easily recognize the challenges your investigators may be facing and to more specifically address their concerns (see Preach My Gospel[2004], 185–86). Begin now by learning to listen sincerely to your sisters, brothers, parents, and friends. While you’re listening, learn to forget yourself in the process. Don’t focus on how you’re going to fix other people’s problems or respond to their concerns. Instead, just listen and allow the Spirit to direct you on what you should say and when.

This can be challenging, especially if you’re learning a new language. I have noticed that if I become too focused on what to say or how to say things correctly with the language, then I often lose the chance for the Spirit to guide my thoughts and words. I have begun to learn how to focus on acting when the Spirit prompts me.

Learn to Follow the Spirit

One of the biggest blessings during my time of service has been learning the importance of acting on promptings when they are received. When the Spirit tells me to do something, I try to do it, no matter how small it may seem. For instance, I felt prompted to pray for rain while teaching a family for the first time. The little ranchero where I am serving has been in drought for several years and rarely sees rain, but the Spirit prompted me to ask for rain. That night, it rained. This made such a strong impression that the family asked us to return to continue to teach the gospel.

Learn to Ask Questions

I have learned the importance of asking questions when prompted by the Spirit. To you future missionaries, I would recommend that you practice asking questions. In doing so, learn to be direct so that you can help others get to the heart of their concerns. From my brief observations, I have seen that successful missionaries are those who have learned the principle of listening and then asking questions that promote pondering. This approach has been much more successful for me than trying to force a conversation that is one-sided or trying to prove the truthfulness of the gospel by logic alone. I have instead learned the significance of inviting others to learn for themselves by asking important gospel questions that invite deeper contemplation, reflection, and personal study.

Learn to Be Bold

I have learned the importance of being bold. We sometimes invite those we teach to set a baptismal date during our first visit. Initially, this was really scary for me, but I have seen many times the fruits of extending the invitation of baptism during that first visit. As I was reading the Book of Mormon, I realized that one of the first things Christ did during his visit to the Americas was to invite those He taught to be baptized in His name (see3 Nephi 11:23). Baptism is the gateway that allows individuals to partake of the gospel and eventually receive temple blessings. This is one reason we serve missions—to extend the same invitation and blessings to all of God’s children.

Therefore, be bold with those around you. Invite your friends to seminary, Church services, and activities. Invite them to hear the missionary lessons if prompted. Invite them to hear your testimony. As missionaries, you will have both the responsibility and authority to invite people to repent and “come unto Christ” (D&C 20:59). Remember, you have something of “great price” to share; there is no reason to hold back. Learn to be bold and direct.

Learn to Love

Perhaps most important, learn to sincerely love those you will have the opportunity to teach. Pray for them, serve them, and show them that you care, and they will begin to have confidence in you as a representative of Jesus Christ.

If you begin to prepare now by talking to others, listening to their concerns, asking questions as prompted by the Spirit, and then learning to be bold and to love, I know the Lord will bless you in your missionary efforts.
