To reach even unto you

Important as programs, meetings, and statistics are in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, they are not the main reasons for the existence of the organization. The ultimate goal of the Church, the one to which all programs and meetings point, is that of "reaching the one," reaching into the heart of each individual member. To Reach Even Unto You deals with many aspects of this most important goal. It provides insight and advice on reaching family members, associates, and oneself. "As we plan to reach, involve, and serve the one," says Elder James E. Faust of the Council of the Twelve, "the principles to be kept before us . . . are the commandments of the Savior, of loving and serving God, and loving and serving our fellowman." Elder Faust's own experience in working with the Saints at all levels of Church activity has given him an extra sensitivity in implementing these two great commandments. He shares this sensitivity with the reader in stories, examples, and timely counsel. Unless each individual has his own personal testimony and conviction of the truth of the gospel, there is no purpose to any of the programs and activities offered by the Church. But as each member strives to reach into the lives of the important individuals within his sphere of influence, everything within the Church takes on new meaning and greater significance. To Reach Even Unto You helps point the way
