The Good Shepherd, by Del Parson
We can make a profound difference by ministering with loyalty.
Ministering with Loyalty
​
-
Be dependable: Follow through on commitments and be supportive when those you minister to need encouragement.
-
Listen actively: By really listening, understanding, and being present for the people you minister to, you can build stronger connections and show that you care about their well-being.
-
Keep confidences: A loyal friend keeps confidences when ministering—and at all times. (In special cases, such as abuse situations, ask for permission and then help them seek the right assistance.)
-
Show love and compassion: When you truly care about those you minister to, they will feel valued and appreciated, creating a relationship where loyalty can flourish.
-
Serve: When we serve each other with love, we demonstrate our loyalty to the Savior and our willingness to feed His sheep (see John 21:15–17).
