How can I be a missionary now?

From “Be Thou an Example of the Believers,” Ensign, Nov. 2010, 48.

Elder Russell M. Nelson of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles shares some of his thoughts on this subject.

You can have “a pure heart and clean hands” (Alma 5:19).

The light of the Lord can beam from your eyes.

Whether full-time missionaries or members, we should all be good examples of the believers in Jesus Christ.

You can invite a friend to read the Book of Mormon. Explain that it is not a novel or a history book. It is another testament of Jesus Christ.

Many of our friends do not know they are welcome in our Church buildings. An invitation to attend a Sunday meeting with you or to participate in a Church activity will help to make visitors feel more comfortable.

Strive to enlarge your own circle of friendship.
