Happy Vintage Halloween

I collect as many vintage images as I can find and thought I would share these with you as I am sure you will enjoy them too. 

I love so much the sweet emails and comments that you have been sending to me about my blogs.  I love the questions, the ideas, and the fact that you are out looking for helps to be more effective Visiting teachers.  I love that you have Relief Society meetings that focus on Visiting teaching and that you know that Visiting teaching is an inspired and very important part of Relief Society.

I personally look forward every month to going Visiting teaching.  I love the new sisters that I have been able to get to know as a result of the changes in the ward that I live in.  I use to feel frustrated at all the changes that were made, but I have been able to get to know so many wonderful women as a result.  I was thinking today that Visiting teaching is so much more than watch care.  It is friendship making, it is being an earthly ministering angel, and it is learning to love and appreciate the diversity and talents of others.  I hope that you too will enjoy your experience with Visiting teaching.  It will happen your entire lifetime, and you have the choice as to what kind of an experience you and your sisters want to have.  I suggest you immerse yourself in it and just jump right in with both feet, because you get as much as you give.  It is good for you and good for your soul as well as the fact that you are able to share a spiritual message with some women who may not get another the entire month.  Perhaps too, you can be a part of the reactivation of some of Heavenly Fathers sweet daughters, that He has put you in their path to seek out and remind them of the Gospel message of love.

Can you tell that I love visiting teaching?  I guess you could say that it is my passion, or I certainly wouldn't put the time and thought into this blog and my visiting teaching surprise blog as well.  Enjoy your opportunity to Visit teach, and if you ever want to share, this is a great place to do it. 

Best regards & Love,
