Song: Sung to “Put Your Shoulder to the Wheel” Hymn 252
The world has need of helping hands
That’s why we Visit Teach.
Reporting needs to leadership,
All the sisters we must reach.
Put your finger to the dial make a phone call
Send a letter through the mail it’s not hard at all.
A visit’s best, it beats the rest
When we go and visit teach.
Sometimes the things we do may be
an answer to a prayer.
May not be much, can be enough
Just knowing that you care.
Put your finger to the dial make a phone call
Send a letter through the mail it’s not hard at all.
A visit’s best, it beats the rest
When we go and visit teach.
So write and call and visit them
With all your might and zeal
You never know whose heart you’ll touch
When they know your love is real.
Put your finger to the dial make a phone call
Send a letter through the mail it’s not hard at all.
A visit’s best, it beats the rest
When we go and visit teach.
Talk: Visiting Teaching Leader (5-10 minutes)
Song: Sung to “Now Let Us Rejoice” Hymn 3
Now let us be valiant in Visiting Teaching
No longer be angry or lazy or weak.
For the Lord in His wisdom has given this system
Of sharing His love with the sisters we seek.
If we love one another and want to serve Father
This trial will soon be a blessing indeed.
For our own cares will vanish and peace will enfold us
As we give of ourselves and the spirit we heed.

Song: Sung to “High On A Mountain Top Hymn 5
When you go Visit Teach do you think it’s a drudge?
Resent the time you spend, and do it with a grudge?
Say I just don’t have time, My schedule is a bear?
Or have the attitude, “I just don’t care?”
This call is to repent, and change your frame of mind,
And when you do you’ll see true happiness you’ll find.
Then when you serve the Lord with loving heart and true,
You’ll find more blessings come back to you!

Song: Sung to “Come Ye Children of the Lord” Hymn 58
Come ye sisters of the Ward, Let us love with one accord.
Let us go and Visit Teach, In each home the gospel preach.
By example they will see, What a sister’s love should be
When you show compassion true, Love will come ten fold to you.
You can do a kindly deed, to a sister in her need.
Listen with a kindly ear, to a sister with a tear.
Maybe take a loaf of bread, More than body will be fed.
Then the soul will fill with love, And with blessings from above.

Song: Sung to “ Hark the Herald, Angels Sing Hymn 209
You are called to Visit Teach, called to fill a need on earth.
There’s someone who needs attention, one who needs to feel of worth.
You can be the one to bless them, You can be the Savior’s hands.
You can be the one who cares, You can be the one who shares.
Seek and pray that you may be filled with joy and charity
