To know the history, purpose, and destiny of the Relief Society
School is starting up. It’s always an exciting time of year with new clothes, new schools and classes, and new friends. It’s also a break for mom. Come on, admit it! You can actually have a couple of hours to do something you want to do, finally. But, then come the after school activities and […]
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. As members of the Relief Society of the Church of Jesus Christ, we are commanded to mourn with those who mourn, comfort those in need of […]
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. Recently, I have experienced moments where I feel like a message is being forced into my head. I just have to think about it and let it stir my conscience […]
It’s funny, when a woman tells other women to stay home and raise children, she gets blasted for it, like Sis. Beck did. When the Brethren say anything like that, they are pretty much ignored. Either way, nowadays, this is still a hot topic that gets women upset. Eliza R. Snow said, “We want to […]
Many of this past Conference’s addresses were warnings to strengthen and protect our families.

At Conference, Elder Ballard reminded us of the series of talks he has been giving us lately. Like many of you, I have forgotten them. This is just another example of why great talks should be remembered, and referred to, often. Starting with “Daughters of God”, he talks about motherhood and offers answers to some […]
Years ago, I came up with what our family called “The Tolman Covenant”. I thought it was so incredibly clever. I likened the scriptures, just as Nephi said to do, to myself, my family, and my time period. I recently ran across this little family document and I now share it with you. I don’t […]
There is a great parable, especially for our day, found in Doctrine and Covenants 101. Starting with verse 44: v 44: A certain nobleman (Jesus Christ) had a spot of land, very choice (in this case, Independence, Missouri, but it could likewise be our stakes, our homes, whatever is our Zion); and he said unto […]
The Mormon women, who first lived in the Salt Lake Valley, were persecuted for their devotion to polygamy. To us, polygamy is pretty distasteful, and we avoid the subject. But to them, it was their lifestyle, their belief, and their choice, and they wanted the world to just leave them alone. In the Dec. 1, […]
