Below is a little message i sent the ward I am currently serving in:
The Worth of Souls is great in the sight of God.
As missionaries we dedicate every waking moment of our lives for the two years we are out to "Inviting people to come unto Christ By helping them receive the Restored Gospel though; FAITH in Jesus Christ, REPENTANCE, BAPTISM, receiving the gift of the HOLY GHOST and ENDURING to the end." ( Preach My Gospel, Ch. 1, Our Purpose).
As we look at this there are a few words that stick out more than others, namely: faith, repentance, baptism, holy ghost, and enduring. This is the Purpose of missionary work whether it be by full time missionaries, the Bishop, the Relief Society Pres. or a the CTR 7 primary teacher. It is the same goal and purpose. And as your full time missionaries we invite YOU to unite with us in this cause in INVITING others unto Christ. It is a commandment from our Heavenly Father and just as all of the other commandments there are Blessings waiting for you to take that step of faith so you might receive them.
"And if it so be that you should labor ALL your days... unto this people, and bring, save it be ONE soul unto me, how GREAT shall be your JOY..."
For the Worth of Souls is great in the sight of God
In the Name of Jesus Christ, Our Savior, Amen.
I love you!
