To know the history, purpose, and destiny of the Relief Society
Our economy (back in 2008) is forcing us to rethink how we do some things. I’m always up for ideas for cheaper Christmas presents, so I thought I would share some meaningful ideas that may cost you less money. Give cases of cans from the Dry Pack Cannery–You can pack any number and any variety […]
How many of you were able to see, listen, or read the talks given at the General Relief Society Meeting, this past weekend? Go to lds.org and print out their talks and read them slowly, underlining where necessary, and let your mind wander as you catch the vision of which they speak. Sis. Beck’s talk […]
I was shopping at the case lot sales and had an interesting conversation with the guy demonstrating his “Morning Moo” products. He told me that his products would be on sale every other month for the rest of the year. I told him that was so great, because I for one, hate to walk into […]
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 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.

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 […]
In Sept. 1999, under Pres. Mary Ellen Smoot’s Presidency, we were given a declaration that encompassed all the ideals, goals, and purposes of the Relief Society. The declaration lists all of the good works established as Relief Society sisters. And as individual RS presidencies organize the women under them, it would serve them well […]
Several years ago I started my “grandma book”. I guess I didn’t have enough at being a mother; I had to keep going. I guess I also wanted to be the greatest grandma in the world. I subtitled it my “campaign to save our children” book. Okay, I may come off a little bit […]
I had two girls go through the Young Women program, and I have to be honest, it was a hard time for them. When they served as presidents of their classes, the advisors typically took over, not giving them the opportunity to exercise leadership skills.
