Us Missionaries Have to Stick Together!

We tracted into a lovely lady last week. We had actually offered her a card a few days earlier, and she didn't take it because she was in a hurry, but she was nice. It was a little awkward when she answered the door since we had already met her, but we got past that real quick.

We asked her about her beliefs, and she explained how she was part of an outreach ministry of some sort (I don't remember what it's called). We shared some of our beliefs, then we offered her a Book of Mormon card. She accepted it and said, "Can I give you mine, too?" We said sure! As she was grabbing her cards she said, "Us missionaries have to stick together!"

It's so true! We should all be missionaries. A huge part of being a missionary is being examples of Christ to everyone we meet.

Sometimes that means taking cookies to your neighbor for no other reason than just to have a nice little chat because you're neighbors.

Sometimes that means saying hi to someone at school or work or the store who you wouldn't normally say hi to.

Sometimes that means going out of your way to be kind to someone in your home! Sometimes I think that one gets overlooked. We think, "Okay, if I want to do service, I have to dedicate two hours a week to helping at the food bank (or fill in the blank)." Guys, all you have to do is do your sibling's chore once in a while or write someone a sweet note.

Invitation: Do one tiny sweet thing every day this week.

I promise (promise promise promise) you'll be way happier if you do it with love. Think of the Savior.

I know it works 'cause I've tried it.

That's all.

Love y'all!

Sister McKay
