To know the history, purpose, and destiny of the Relief Society
I am inspired when I read J. Richard Clarke’s talk, “To Honor the Priesthood,” in the Priesthood session of the April 1991 conference. There is always something for women to learn from priesthood meetings and I learned something from this talk. At the beginning of the year a boy turns 12, they are enfolded into […]
Have we forgotten what a wonderful world we have to live in? Are we so caught up in ugly politics that we can’t see all that Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ have offered us? Sometimes, I wonder what our masks are hiding, or perhaps exposing in us? Speaking to the Young Women, during this 1989 […]
What has changed in your life because of the pandemic? Have you taken a step back from the world and reprioritized what is important in your life? Have you drawn closer to your loved ones? Are you more alert? More calm? More worried? Even though there is crisis, we can remain calm. Some have seen […]
I’m a late bloomer. It wasn’t until I was in the first years of my visiting teaching that I realized just how much service is truly a gift for those who feel alone. Sis. Joy F. Evans (counselor in the RS presidency) spoke in April 1989 about this topic. She explains how there are people […]
Have you ever heard of the idea of filling someone’s pitcher? Sometimes we feel completely empty and our pitcher is bone dry of the nourishing elixir of liquid wholeness. Jesus Christ told the woman at the well, “Whosoever drinketh of this water shall thirst again: But whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give […]
How are we feeling about all these “changes” going on in our church? Are they true changes, or are they simply shifts that refocus our sights on Christ? The gospel of Jesus Christ is true doctrine that leads us to not only salvation but exaltation, right? And we believe in works as well as faith. […]
For a couple of years now, Relief Society women have struggled with RS Meetings. The General Board changed the name a couple of times, and somehow in the confusion we all just settled for what was easy. Relief Societies have resorted to parties, a few Super Saturdays, and dinners. Last April, Sis. Burton urged […]
Did you hear Women’s Conference last night? We were given strong and loving council to fulfill our innate abilities, as women, to do the work of the Lord and build the kingdom of God. How grateful I am for prophets and leaders who guide us, remind us, and call us to repentance, so that […]
At BYU’s Women’s Conference (2015), I was overwhelmed with thoughts from the theme, which was Covenants. Are you a covenant keeper? What does it really mean to keep the covenants I have made with my Father in heaven? Do I even really understand what covenants I’ve made and what it takes to live by them? Covenant […]
This is a page in the history of (at the time) the only Farmington, Utah Relief Society during the First World War and Second World War. I am fascinated how busy these women were serving and working and getting together to make great things happen. “1943 was surely a challenge, because World War One […]
