Here are some of the quotes I shared in class today about finding Lost Sheep. They are especially powerful in the context of the full talk, also linked below. You can also find the story I shared today about Chris the lost sheep in a previous post.
“Trust the Lord to work His
miracles. Understand that it’s not your job to convert people. That is the role
of the Holy Ghost. … Yours is to love
God and love your neighbors … Follow this path, and God will work miracles
through you to bless His precious children.”
- Elder Dieter F. Uchtdorf, “Missionary Work: Sharing What Is In Your Heart,” April 2019 General Conference

“God’s
shepherds are to strengthen, heal, bind up that which is broken, bring again
that which was driven away, seek that which was lost.28”
“We covenant to follow Him, not passively, blindly, or ‘sheepishly,’ but instead desiring with all our hearts and minds to love God and our neighbor, bearing one another’s burdens and rejoicing in one another’s joys. … We gladly seek to join His work of gathering and ministering to all of God’s children.”

"But
it all begins with prayer. The Holy
Ghost will guide us to know what is best. What would happen in our wards and
branches if each family used a fast Sunday to fast and pray about a less-active
person or family, then to reach out in love and friendship? The key is to pray
and then do!"
