| Womanhood

Women are pretty amazing, I have to say.  Men might think they are all that (okay, maybe some of them are), but women have strength that isn’t evident in their appearance, and they often don’t even know what they are capable of themselves.  It’s a wonderful surprise. I’ve been reading Women’s Voices by Kenneth and […]

This was an article I found in the Woman’s Exponent, July 1, 1873 issue: “We wish to call attention to the subject of fashion as there has been but little said concerning it of late, and as we consider it one of the most important items pertaining to the salvation of woman.  We would be […]

| Relief Society

Relief Society is the perfect place to practice on one another.  Assuming we all feel love for each other, there should be safety and security within our folds.

Our Relief Society Enrichment program is a great program, because it gives us so much freedom.  Some of us like a little more structure but let me give you some ideas to create your own structure.   As my wise daughter said, “Allowing yourself to think outside the box allows the Lord to work through you.” […]

I am about to broach a touchy subject; one that has been ignored by many.  You don’t need to hear my opinions, so I have collected various quotes from the Brethren; they have been warning us for a very long time.  I have listed the references for these quotes, so you can look up the […]
