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 of Jesus Christ will REGENERATE the World

Quote from:
"Jesus the Christ"
By: Elder James E. Talmage
(Page 286 - Collector's Edition)

"The gospel of Jesus Christ, which shall yet regenerate the world,
is to prevail---not by revolutionary assaults upon existing governments,
nor through anarchy and violence---
but by the teaching of individual duty and by the
spread of the spirit of love.
When the love of God shall be given a place in the hearts of mankind,
when men shall unselfishly love their neighbors,
then social systems and governments shall be formed and operated
to the securing of the greatest good to the greatest number.
Until men open their hearts to the reception of the
gospel of Jesus Christ, injustice and oppression, servitude and slavery,
in some form or other, are sure to exist.
Attempts to extirpate social conditions that spring from individual
selfishness cannot be otherwise than futile so long as selfishness
is left to thrive and propagate."
