By 1851(?) more than half the members of the church were baptized members living in Great Britain.
I believe in missionary work and the gathering of Israel but I find that talks about missionary work rarely engage me because I virtually never interact with anyone new—I’m too consumed by my own small sphere.
An essential part of this missionary effort is for individual members to become beacon-light examples wherever we live. We cannot be in camouflage. Our Christlike example of kindness, righteousness, happiness, and sincere love for all peoples can create not only a guiding beacon light for them but also an understanding that there is a safe harbor in the ordinances of salvation and exaltation of the restored gospel of Jesus Christ.
Becoming a beacon-light example is something I can work for even in constrained circumstances.
