We had several visitors in our Relief Society on Sunday.  Sister Cami Tullis was here visiting with her folks.  Also, a niece to Tullis' was here to enjoy family ties.  We welcome a new member to our ward, Sister Myers.  We will give more on her next week after we do a little detective work.

We are pleased that Sister Elaine and her husband Tony are home after his surgery last week.  They will have a one-week wait before beginning chemo and radiation.  We are so happy to have them back among us.

News has arrived of the Enterprise High School Baseball Team winning the State Championship held in Kearns over the weekend.  Members from our ward include:  Jade Hulet, Parker Laub, Dylan Tripp, and Dustin Tullis.  Congratulations, boys!  The girls also placed in their State Tournament.  Aubrey Christensen and Dakota Robinson were on the 3rd place team.  Way to go, ladies!

LESSON:

After singing "Called To Serve" as an opening hymn (which is always inspiring), Sister Bea Gubler gave a wonderful lesson on Missionary Work.  We were taught that the Lord's church is a missionary church and it is part of His plan for us. 

We should all be missionaries even if we are not formally called and set apart.  "We are responsible to teach the gospel by word and deed to all of our Heavenly Father's children."  A few of the many ways that we can do this are:
  • By showing our friends and other the joy we experiece from living the gospel.
  • By overcoming our natual shyness, being friendly and doing kind things.
  • By explaining the gospel to others.
  • By teaching our children the importance of sharing the gospel.
  • By paying our tithes and offerings.
  • By contributing to the missionary fund.
  • By inviting nonmembers to activities.
  • By giving copies of the Church Magazines to others.
We are promised that those of us who work for the salvation of others will have our sins forgiven and bring salvation to our own souls.
