To know the history, purpose, and destiny of the Relief Society
I have often wondered why the Relief Society has changed our meeting system, suggesting our meetings be less frequent, less structured, and less demanding. For the past several years I have seen wards either have too many “fun” activities to keep an imaginary quota, or drop all activities, because they don’t know what they want […]
The World, Satan, and Life typically separates us and keeps us feeling alone and powerless. But Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ gather us together in their arms in love.

Emmeline B. Wells (5th RS President) did a lot of writing in her day. She had an opinion about everything, especially women; how she should be treated, what she could accomplish, and what she should do with her life. She wrote under many pseudonyms, including Amethyst, who is the author of this interesting article I […]

Back in the old days, Family Home Evenings were meant to create a special time for families to have a set time to be together to train in the gospel. Things haven’t changed over the years; in fact, FHE is needed more than ever. There are two reasons to keep holding Family Home Evening: 1) […]
There are several thoughts, questions, and ideas going through my head that I’m just going to pour them out in this post, and think about…publicly.

Relief Society is made up of two different types of sisters: Active sisters who come to Church regularly, and Inactive sisters who feel displaced, weak, and insecure. Each individual sister ranges somewhere within these two groups. Active sisters make up THE CORE of the ward. They are dependable, responsible, willing to serve, support, and help […]
Every bishop I’ve ever heard of has Missionary Work on their list of goals for the year. Raise your hand if you see the goal on the list, feel guilty for an instant, and move on to better things? We forget a very important aspect of missionary work. The Spirit converts people, we merely act […]
