APPLY YOURSELF TO THE FIELD MINISTRY, June 30-July 6, 2025, Start Conversations: FROM HOUSE TO HOUSE. (Making Disciples: A Work of Love, Lesson 3, point 3). Prepared Assignment.

Start conversations (4 mins.) FROM HOUSE TO HOUSE. The person tells you that they just moved to the country (lmd lesson 3 point 3).

Setting: The publisher is preaching from house to house when he encounters a young woman who has just moved to the country. During the conversation, the young woman shares her challenges related to adjusting to a new environment. The publisher shows empathy, uses a Bible text to offer comfort, and offers to help her with her errands, while teaching her more about her new community.

Publisher(s): Good morning! My name is [Name]. I'm visiting neighbors to share a positive message from the Bible. How are you today?

Assistant: Hi, I'm fine, but to be honest, a little stressed and disoriented. I just moved to this country.

Publisher(s): Oh, I totally understand. It must be quite a change, right? Moving to another country isn't easy.

Assistant: Yes, honestly, it's overwhelming. I have to go shopping and take some documents to an office I don't know where it is... and I don't even know where to start. I'm afraid of getting lost, and that makes me very uneasy.

Publisher(s): I understand. It must be hard to face all of this alone in a new place. I want to share something that might be helpful to you right now. It's advice from the Bible that has helped many of us when we've been through difficult times like this.

Assistant: Really? What does it say?

Publisher(s): Look, Philippians 4:6-7 says, "Do not be anxious about anything. But in every situation, by prayer, petition, and thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which is beyond human understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus."

This shows us that prayer can bring us peace, even in times of stress like the ones you're experiencing. What do you think?

Assistant: That sounds comforting. I'd never thought of prayer as a way to find peace. I always thought prayer was just repeating words.

Publisher(s): Yes, many people believe that. But in reality, prayer is a very powerful tool. We can talk to God like a close friend. He knows what we're feeling and can give us the peace we need in troubling times like this.

Assistant: How lovely! That's just what I need right now: a little peace and quiet.

Publisher(s): If you'd like, next time I can bring you a post that explains more about how the Bible can help us in our daily lives. It also includes practical advice on how to pray in a way that truly helps us.

Assistant: Oh yes, please! I'd love to read something like that. I think it's just what I need to calm down a little in the midst of this change.

Publisher(s): Perfect, then I'll stop by tomorrow and bring it to you. And if you want, I can also accompany you on those errands you have pending. This way, you can get to know the city a little, and I can introduce you to some very friendly neighbors. They might also be able to help you if you need it later.

Assistant: Would I really do that? It would be a huge help to me! I don't know anyone yet. It would make me feel so much more secure.

Publisher(s): Of course, no problem. We all need a little support when we're starting out somewhere new.

Assistant: Thank you, [Name]. I really don't know how glad I am to have opened the door for you today.

Publisher(s): I'm glad we met. So, see you tomorrow, God willing.

Assistant: Yes, see you tomorrow. Have a nice day!

Publisher(s): Likewise. Take good care of yourself.
