President Gordon B. Hinckley's Challenge and Promise

President Gordon B. Hinckley said in a

worldwide leadership training meeting:

“I am convinced there is no other organization anywhere to match the Relief Society of this Church.

If they will be UNITED and speak with ONE VOICE,

Their STRENGTH will be INCALCULABLE!”

Relief Society - A Restoration of an Ancient Form

RELIEF SOCIETY

“A Restoration of an Ancient Pattern”


Although the name may be modern date,

the institution is of ANCIENT ORIGIN.

We were told by our martyred prophet

that the same organization EXISTED

in the church ANCIENTLY.”

Gospel "Formulas"

Today, in Relief Society...we had some fun with "Gospel Formulas"...We only touched on a few of them...and so...over the next few days...I will post some of the ones I came up with....There are MANY MANY MORE...Send me some of YOUR FAVORITES...and I will POST THEM! It would be fun to see how many we can come up with...This would INCLUDE...General Conference talks...Quotes from the Brethren...

OK...Here are a couple to get started - (my two favorites):

DEALING WITH DIFFICULT Individuals or Situations:

"But I say unto you, Love your enemies,
Bless them that curse you,
Do good to them that hate you,
and Pray for them which despitefully use you,
and persecute you...
Matthew 5:44

FORMULA:
  • LOVE them
  • BLESS them
  • DO GOOD to them
  • PRAY for them

GODHOOD


"SERVICE is not something we endure on the earth
so we can earn the right to live
in the celestial kingdom.
SERVICE is the very fiber of which an EXALTED LIFE
in the celestial kingdom is made.
Knowing that SERVICE is
what gives our Father in Heaven fulfillment,
and knowing that we want to be where He is
and
as He is,
why must we be commanded to SERVE one another?
SERVICE
is
What GODHOOD
is all about."

President Marion G. Romney - Ensign - November 1982, page 93
Quoted By: M. Russell Ballard - Ensign - September 1992, page 73

FORMULA:
SERVE ONE ANOTHER
