Today and every week from now on we will start class after a song and prayer, with standing and reciting "My Purpose as a Missionary" Which is: Invite others to come unto Christ by helping them receive the restored gospel through faith in Jesus Christ and His atonement, repentance, baptism, receiving the gift of the Holy ghost, and enduring to the end.
As this was recited, first from reading, eventually from memory, the spirit was strong and unified the group with this common goal. You are a modern day army of Heleman!! Knowing your purpose keeps us focused on why we are here and what the goal is when we study.
We role played today practicing teaching The Plan Of Salvation lesson in preparation for next week when we will visit another ward and share the lesson with others.
What did you learn? Tell your parents. These kids did an awesome job and we felt the spirit as they testified of the doctrines taught in this lesson. Thank you for coming prepared and sharing what you learned.
Today we have to say good-bye to Nathan Eddington. This was his last week in class. He leaves on wednesday for the MTC and then to the Dallas Texas Mission. He is nervous, but has faith that the Lord will help him as he puts his trust in Him. Nathan will be missed but we know Texas will be getting a wonderful servant of the Lord! God be with you!
Next weeks assignment:
Please practice teaching this lesson to someone in your family, or a friend or in the mirror :) and record the date that you taught each part on the sheet below. We handed these out in class but if you didn't get one, here it is. This is an actual teaching record used in the field to keep track of lessons you teach your investigators. See you next week and please be on time. Class starts at 7:30am and we would love you to bring a friend!
