So on my mission, one thing we would challenge members to do is to pass out mormon.org cards. We would normally give them a hand full of them, and tell them good luck, we would then go back after a week we would go back and see if they were able to pass them out. Most of the time they hadn't even handed out one, and we didn't understand why that was. Until finally a lady asked us how she was suppose to hand them out, she didn't know how. So we decided to do some role plays, us missionaries would do so many role plays. It gave her the confidence to start handing them out. The next day she went to the mall with her daughters, and she started handing them out, and she was shocked at how easy it was to hand them out, and also who was really interested in receiving them. There were people who looked like they would be interested, but just took the card and shoved it in their pocket and threw it away at the nearest trash can. Then there was this guy who was covered in tattoos and piercings, he took the card, thanked her for it, and actually read it, then told her that he had been looking for a church to go to. It was a great story to hear, and this lady now loves handing out mormon.org cards and was always asking for more!
We never know who will accept the gospel, so we need to invite all. The Lord will help us, and give us the encouragement we need. The Lord will bless us for our efforts! The Church is true, and God does love us all, even when we don't measure up to our full potential, He does forgive us.
