Home teaching is "priesthood compassionate service," and lives will be blessed, hearts will be comforted and souls will be saved through this vital priesthood endeavor.
      In his wisdom, the Lord has provided guidelines allowing priesthood holders to serve, teach and testify to families of the truth through home teaching.
      Such a call is one of the most urgent and rewarding opportunities the church provides to nurture and inspire.
      Understanding the challenges of each family member, making an advance appointment and becoming a genuine friend to each are important home-teaching guidelines.
      "Home teaching answers many prayers and permits us to see the occurrence of living miracles." Visits by home teachers can be the key that will eventually open the doors to the return of those who have waned from church activity.
      Jesus Christ didn't inscribe his laws upon stone but upon human hearts.
