I know I am a couple of days early…but I thought no one would mind… for my Nov. 2015 Visiting Teaching Handout for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints!
This month you are supposed to pick one of the conference talks to give for your message, so I decided that it would be fun to make a pocket to put a copy of the talk that you pick and a small treat!
I chose to put a packet of apple cider and a salted caramel stirring spoon into my pocket! You could put a candy bar, a hot chocolate mix, a picture of the prophet, a recipe, a cookie, a service gift certificate or personalize it for the sisters you visit!
To print as a jpeg, right click over the image and go to “save image as”, then save in a folder. These “pockets” are formatted on an 8.5 x 11 size page, so you can print your own.
Here is a blank pocket for those that would like to translate, or if you need a cute little pocket for a handout, a treat, a card or for an invite!
Here is the PDF for those that would like the download:
Nov. 2015 VT Packet and here is the blank pocket: Nov. 2015 VT packet-Blank
If you do not want to make the pocket…here is the 4 x 6 card!
To print as a jpeg, right click over the image and go to “save image as” then save in a folder. You can then print your own, or send it out to your favorite photo processing center.
Here is the blank card for those of you that would like to translate, or if you need a fun blank fall card!

So now you have several options that you can use for the Nov. 2015 Visiting Teaching Handout! To make the salted caramel spoon, simply dip a spoon into melted caramel filling the spoon up, scrape the bottom of the spoon and place on a piece of parchment paper. I put a knife under the handle of the spoon to keep it level until the caramel was set. Sprinkle a small amount of kosher salt on the caramel before it sets up.As always…remember that it is the visit that is important…not the handout! I hope that we can all have grateful hearts this month as we go out to visit and that our sisters will feel our love for them!
Thanks for stopping by today and Happy Visiting!

Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful talents!
Hugs and thank you very much. Your ideas are irresistible to granny who has never been crafty. I am serving a local mission and volunteer to care for older grannies and teach at Deseret Industry’s. Your clever crafts help me to help more than my visit teach sisters!
Sister Hardy, Thank you for your comment, I am glad that you can use some of my ideas to help you with your callings. May the Lord bless you in all of your endeavors and the good work that you do.

Love the handout idea very clever but was wondering if it would work on black or brown card stock the black background would use a lot of bkack ink? Thanks for all your great posts Linda
Linda, You could try printing it on brown card stock, but I do not think it would show up on black.
