To know the history, purpose, and destiny of the Relief Society
I just have to share with you my lesson on settling the Salt Lake Valley. It was way out there enough that I hope you’ll find it interesting too. As we read in Eph 2: 19-21, Jesus Christ is the Chief Cornerstone. At each of our temples, we have cornerstones, with the Southeast being the […]
The Seventh Meeting was held on the 13th of May, 1942. Joseph Smith opened the meeting with prayer. Every week there is a long list of women wanting to be voted into membership. That still amazes me: sisters BEGGING to be a part of Relief Society. Brother Joseph felt strongly that anyone “who refused to […]
I have a friend who used to microfilm records for the Family History Department. She ran across a story that touched her so deeply that she made a copy for herself, so she could always remember it. She gave me a copy of her copy, so I could be touched too. This record comes from […]
One individual can make a difference in life. Sometimes it’s because of a calling; more often than not it’s through inspiration, i.e., being at the right place at the right time. So many women have made their mark in this world, but this time I’m going to talk about a man. Wilford C. Wood was […]
General Conference: our most up to date scripture. What we need to hear right now. The question we need to be asking ourselves is-What do I do with what I just heard? It’s hard to put all the talks into a nutshell, but what I got out of Conference is that we need to show […]

They lived on a 300-acre plantation where Bathsheba was raised in luxury and trained in the fine arts of embroidery and cloth production. She was an artist as well and […]
These thoughts are taken from two different talks with the same title. Sis. Julie B. Beck, First Counselor in the YW General Presidency (at the time), gave her talk in May 2004 and Sis. Cheryl C. Lant, General Primary President, gave her talk in Nov. 2005. Both talks give us important and inviting thoughts on […]
Our General Relief Society President has given us an amazing vote of confidence. Instead of dictating exactly, or even partially, what we are to do as a Relief Society, she is allowing our own inspiration to soar, our personal revelation to exemplify our womanhood, and our sisterhood to gain the momentum that has been prophesied […]
At the sixth meeting of the Relief Society, on April 28th, 1842, Joseph Smith and Willard Richards attended, to give instruction to the sisters. And boy, did they. After the meeting ended, Eliza reported how strong the Spirit was at the meeting, “never to be forgotten by those in attendance”. You might recognize several quotes […]
