“As we strive to follow the Savior’s example, we must first
know and number His sheep. We have been assigned specific individuals and
families to tend so we are certain that all of the Lord’s flock are accounted
for and no one is forgotten. Numbering, however, is not really about numbers;
it is about making certain each person feels the love of the Savior through
someone who serves for Him. In that way, all can recognize that they are known
by a loving Father in Heaven. I recently met a young woman who has been
assigned to minister to a sister almost five times her age. Together, they have
discovered a common love for music. When this young woman visits, they sing
songs together, and they share their favorites. They are forging a friendship
that blesses both of their lives.” – Bonnie H. Cordon
