The talk from the priesthood session that I loved was by Russell M. Nelson. He speaks a lot about missionaries and how important they are to our church. He also puts an emphasis on the importance of member missionaries. He tells us to be examples of the believers. "Let no man despise thy youth; but be thou an example of the believers, in word, in conversation, in charity, in spirit, in faith, in purity." 1 Timothy 4:12 After listening to this talk and thinking about that particular scripture, I thought, what better way to be an example of the believers in faith than being a missionary? I very highly doubt that there is any missionary who does this great work without faith. That would be like trying to teach without your heart. It is useless. By doing missionary work, even as a member missionary, we show Heavenly Father that we trust in His plan enough to want others to know and feel the same things that we, as members of the Church, do. This is a great way to exercise faith, by being an example and leading others to Christ. I'm so thankful that the Church has such a strong missionary program, and so grateful for the faithful members who do everything they can to be an example of the believers.
