How to Lead the Member Missionary Work in the Stake and Ward
This essay, which was written primarily for bishops and stake presidents, is
comprised of three sections about leading missionary work. Because all must be
exemplary leaders, the first section summarizes how bishops and stake
presidents can personally succeed in sharing the gospel. The second recounts
the work of a stake president who trained the leaders of each ward in his stake
to develop and use powerful ward mission plans. It describes how he trained, inspired
and followed up with them to insure success. Baptisms in his stake doubled –
and many of those who were baptized came from member referrals. The third
section describes a bishop who decided to make missionary work the primary
focus in his ward, believing that this focus
would bring such spiritual blessings into the hearts and homes of the members
of his ward that the other dimensions of the work of the ward would prosper as
well. They achieved their goal of baptizing at
least one new member every month.
