Daily Gems: Home Teaching Is Preparation for a Mission

Daily Gems Home Teaching Is Preparation for a Mission
—————————————————

“Every one of you [teachers and priests] should be given the assignment to home teach with a companion who holds the Melchizedek Priesthood. What an opportunity to prepare for a mission. What a privilege to learn the discipline of duty. A young man will automatically turn from concern for self when he is assigned to ‘watch over’ others (D&C 20:53).”

Topics: home teaching, discipline, young men, missionary work
