If they say No Visitors, we should respect that and ask if they would accept a letter or email. I agree and tried to be subtle with the RS president about making cold calls. But it only upsets them.

We include a brief scriptural message, holiday greeting, or excerpt of a First Presidency message, and include our phone numbers in case the folks are ever in need. We have been doing this for over three years. Finally, last week an inactive sister who is going to have surgery called and asked us to come and give her a Priesthood blessing. She is the first to respond to our letters, but it was well worth the effort. Bless you and your companion, Hermano Muy Mio! A couple of scriptures come to mind: Matthew 18:12, and Doctrine & Covenants 18:10-16. 2
