To know the history, purpose, and destiny of the Relief Society
I discovered a woman who lived back in the 1700’s, who has touched my heart. Her name is Isabella Marshall Graham. I invite you to google her. Her biography, “Power of Faith” will inspire you as it inspired me: Power of Faith She was born in Scotland in the year 1742. She received a good […]
I’ve heard many women say how petrified they are to bear their testimonies. Or women who apologize for saying what ends up being something very profound and beautiful. It occurred to me that most of the women in this church have never served a mission and I wonder if there is a relationship in that. […]
The most common Relief Society activity groups I’ve heard of are Book clubs, exercise groups, and Young Mom’s groups. Occasionally, after passing out an Interests Sheet, you might see a class on photography, scrapbooking, or museum trips. Enrichment nights are often dinner or maybe a humanitarian project.

The Church is in need of Senior Missionaries. Why aren’t more couples going out, do you suppose? Fear is probably at the top of the list. Women, who have never served a mission, might fear the unknown. Maybe they wonder what service of value can they provide. Can a single senior sister serve as well […]
When the Female Relief Society was first organized, there were nineteen members, plus officers; by the following March there were 1158 members attending. They outgrew their meeting room and would meet in The Grove, where the spillage of sisters could still be included. The Society became so popular that even unseemly women wanted to join. […]
The war chapters, in Alma, are probably my favorite in all of scripture. I have written in at the top of these chapters, FOR THE STRENGTH OF YOUTH, because I feel this is where we get the best information on how to fight the adversary and save our children. Follow along in your own scriptures […]
