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.”

President Monson - Gallup Poll's 10 Most Admired Men

President Monson is listed among Gallup Poll's ten most admired men

Published: Wednesday, Dec. 28, 2011

For the first time, the president of the Church has been named to the Gallup poll's annual "Most Admired Men" top 10 list.
Drake Busath,
President Thomas S. Monson was named in the poll's 2011 top 10 list that also included heavyweights from the worlds of government, religion and business. Others on this year's "Most Admired Men" list are U.S. President Barack Obama, former U.S presidents George W. Bush and Bill Clinton, the Rev. Billy Graham, Pope Benedict XVI and American business icons Warren Buffett and Bill Gates.
The results are based on a Dec. 15-18 USA Today/Gallup poll that asked Americans to name, without prompting, the person they most admire living in any part of the world.
President Monson's inclusion on the list caught the attention of the pollsters.
"It is common for the president of the Mormon Church to receive mentions, but [President] Monson is the first to make the top 10," wrote Gallup managing editor Jeffrey Jones in its blog.
U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton was named the "Most Admired Woman" in the Gallup poll.
