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.”

"Master, which is the great commandment in the law?"

Elder M. Russell Ballard
"Finding Joy through Loving Service"
General Conference - April 2011
"Ensign" - May 2011 - Page 46-47

"I believe there is one SIMPLE but PROFOUND---even SUBLIME---
principle that encompasses the ENTIRETY of the
gospel of Jesus Christ. If we whole-heartedly EMBRACE
this principle and make it the focus of our lives,
it will PURIFY and SANCTIFY us so we can LIVE once again
in the presence of God."

The Savior spoke of this principle when He answered the Pharisee who asked,
"Master, which is the great commandment in the law?

"Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with ALL thy heart,
and with ALL thy soul,
and with ALL thy mind.

"This is the first and great commandment.

"And the second is like unto it,
Thou shalt love they neighbor as thyself" (Matthew 22:36-40)
