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.”

We Will Try and Reach Every Living Soul...

  President Boyd K. Packer has said, "We accept the responsibility to preach the gospel to every person on earth.  And if the question is asked, 'You mean you are out to convert the entire world?' the answer is, 'Yes.  We will try to reach every living soul.'"

(Conference Report, October 1975, 145.)
Joseph Smith's Wentworth Letter:
"No unhallowed hand can stop this work from progressing...
Armies may combine, mobs may assemble,...
but the truth of God will go forth nobly until
every ear shall hear, every nation shall be visited, until the Great Jehovah shall say, 'It is done.'"

(Joseph Smith, "History of The Church of Jesus Christ
of Latter-day Saints, ed. B.H. Roberts, 2d ed. rev., 
7 vols. - Salt Lake City: The Church of Jesus Christ
of Latter-day Saints, 1932-51, 4:540)
