Third Hour Posted April 20, 2017 Report Share Posted April 20, 2017 You need good ideas for visiting teaching. We have original visiting teaching ideas. My best visiting teachers often served me with cooking. New desserts and casseroles came almost monthly. But if I made my sisters eat my food, I'm not sure it would be a service. I've needed to come up with out-of-the-box ideas, so here they are for your benefit. Text Her We all spend so much time on our phones, so use it to your advantage! Set up a group conversation between you, your companion, and your sister. You can keep each other updated and stay in contact at the same time. Serve Her The question "can we do anything for you" is not very productive. Take the initiative instead! There are always opportunities to serve someone. Take out the trash, help with yard work, or babysit the children. Nothing brings people closer than Christ-like service. Spend Time With Her Visiting teaching doesn't have to be a once-a-month visit. Actually, it shouldn't be. Spend time with your sister and get to know her... View the full article Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a bunch of cutesy things that reflect the VT message - like a postcard with a pull-quote from the VT message, gift tags and gift bags in the same theme, chocolate bar in a matching sleeve, etc. all arranged in a matching cutesy basket/box/etc... They usually cost under $10 and I was tempted to buy some but then my husband says, that's like the As Seen On TV commercials, it's highly addictive so you'll be spending $50/month on those things.

Sunday21 Posted April 23, 2017 Report Share Posted April 23, 2017 @anatess2. Thank you! Sounds fun but yes addictive! I used to always bring a gift for an inactive sister but she asked me to stop. After a while I was embarrassed to go without a gift! Good business idea though! Clever sister! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
