Sometimes member missionary experiences happen because you notice someone else’s efforts to spread the good news. That’s what happened when I exited a small gas station market in McLean, Virginia recently. Positioned on top of the sanitizing towel dispenser, which is on the right side of the exiting doorway, were some Spanish religious postcards promoting […]

If you want to be involved in member missionary work, it’s important that you associate with people not of your faith!

Just do your best with the situations that are placed in your pathway and you will always be successful! I experienced that recently on a flight across the country. Enjoy this […]

Today I went to Catonsville, Maryland to do our first job. Unbeknownst to me, I was about to experience some joy at the gas pump. When I pulled into a gas station there, this is what I saw: Start With Common Ground Now honestly, how many times in your life do you see someone wearing […]

It all starts with a temple goal. In my case, that goal was set in January of 2017 when I decided to go to the temple two times a month. Just to make it interesting, I decided to make it two different temples, ideally. Joy with the Uber drivers happened yesterday as a result of […]
