Dear Sisters,
We had a wonderful combined meeting today taught by President Clayton, president of the San Diego mission. He talked about overcoming our fear to share something special with our friends. We love them. We were encouraged to continue to pray for missionary opportunities as our stake leaders have asked, but to also open our mouths. We were all asked to pray every day at noon for the next two weeks for the Spirit to guide us in our efforts to seek out those who have been prepared and are preparing to receive the gospel message. We will end these two weeks on Fast Sunday (the Sunday after conference) by fasting as well for this same purpose. Thank you Bishop Taylor and President Clayton for this challenge.
