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.”

Sacrifice

Gordon B. Hinckley  

"Sacrifice is the very essence of religion; it is the keystone of happy home life, the basis of true friendship, the foundation of peaceful community living, of sound relations among people and nations. . . .

"Without sacrifice there is no true worship of God.  I become increasingly convinced of that every day.  'The Father gave his Son, and the Son gave his life,' and we do not worship unless we give---give of our substance, give of our time, give of our strength, give of our talent, give of our faith, give of our testimonies" (The Teachings of Gordon B. Hinckley, p. 565).
