To know the history, purpose, and destiny of the Relief Society
Each lesson begins with an interesting illustration of the topic. The story here tells about how the pilot hears the right sound when he/she is going in the right direction, and the wrong sound when he has veered off.

For years, my mother participated in a Sunday School/Personal History Workshop in our ward. It ran for twelve weeks and started over again with a new group. Many of the participants continued into the next twelve weeks, and so on because they enjoyed it so much. I hope I can inspire you enough to start your […]
I feel compelled to speak out to the Ordain Women group who are in the news. This is a time for Relief Society sisters to stand for something and unite our belief, faith, and witness. Many sisters have come up to me and argued that we should all be Mormon Feminists. And I have continued to attempt to […]

“I was assigned to visit a woman who had been active in our ward, but was going through some very difficult medical problems, compounded by family issues, and everything became too much to deal with and she stopped coming to church and would not allow anyone to visit her. I knew her vaguely, and was […]
The Women’s Exponent, published for 65 years, by women in the Relief Society, was never a chuch publication. When Emmeline Wells, editor and chief, retired, she hoped the church would take over her publication and continue this excellent form of communication among the women. When Emmeline offered the newspaper to the church, they turned it […]
