I am Visiting Teacher Coordinator in my BYU-Idaho college student ward. With a Relief Society of primarly 18-20 year olds, it can sometimes be challenging to get them motivated to take on the calling of a Visiting Teacher. We have it fairly easy, however.

Living in an apartment complex where your next door neighbors are usually the sisters you visit should make it easier for us to get our visits done each month. With roommates as your visiting teaching companion, and your supervisor one of your roommates as well, we should be able to accomplish 100% every month. But, unfortunately, there is still the church-wide problem of accomplishing visiting teaching each month.

Now, after being in Relief Society for almost 3 years, and having the calling of visiting teaching coordinator, I have gained a testimony of the visiting teaching program. I know that it is important and know that with the Lord’s help and counsel of so many wonderful leaders, that each and every one of the sisters in the church can accept the calling of visiting teacher and fulfill it to their best ability.
