Welcome, beloved sisters, to the 2014 annual training. My name is Linda K. Burton, and I am the Relief Society general president. And I'm joined by my wonderful counselors, Sister Carole M. Stephens and Sister Linda S. Reeves. This training replaces spring training that in the past was held in the Tabernacle on Temple Square. We are delighted to extend the opportunity for training for sisters throughout the world. We're hoping that you've had the opportunity to view Part 1 of this training, the roundtable discussion. We know that you'll be touched by the personal experiences, the testimonies, and the love that have been shared by Elder Holland, Elder Christofferson, Bishop Stevenson, and the auxiliary general presidents. As you consider the Relief Society outline in Part 2, think about ways that you can apply the principles of learning and teaching in Part 1. When the Prophet Joseph Smith organized Relief Society, he taught the sisters that Relief Society was not only to relieve the poor, but also to save souls. Through visiting teaching, the Lord has provided us an opportunity to participate in the vital work of temporal and spiritual salvation. Part 2 consists of a brief outline that will assist you in teaching sisters how to minister as the Savior did. As visiting teachers seek inspiration to know the needs of their sisters and then act, they become instruments in the hands of the Lord. Sisters, we do love you and we pray for you that you will be blessed in your efforts to help your sisters. May we each accept the Savior's invitation to love one another as He loves us. In the name of Jesus Christ, amen. Amen.
