My Missionary Journal

“Every member a missionary …”

“… How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things! …”

—Romans 10:15 [Rom. 10:15]

I am going to think about each of my friends. Then I will decide on one special friend to be a missionary to. I will pray and ask Heavenly Father if I’ve made the right choice. If the feeling I get is a positive one, I’ll continue working with that friend. If the feeling I get is that my choice was wrong, I will choose another friend.
