We lost all of our baptismal
dates this week. We still have a few investigators, but it's difficult to keep
in contact with them. I am continually impressed with how simple and powerful
missionary work is when the members and the missionaries work perfectly in
harmony. We find when we teach, and we teach when we find.
Elder Bednar in his April 2008
Conference Talk "Ask in Faith" said, "We properly pray for the safety and
success of the full-time missionaries throughout the world. And a common element
in many of our prayers is a request that the missionaries will be led to
individuals and families who are prepared to receive the message of the
Restoration. But ultimately it is my responsibility and your responsibility to
find people for the missionaries to teach. Missionaries are full-time teachers;
you and I are full-time finders. And you and I as lifelong missionaries should
not be praying for the full-time missionaries to do our work!"
