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.”

Relief Society Dinner

Our THEME for our Relief Society this year is:
"Seek Ye First the Kingdom of God"
(Matthew 6:33)

Journals - Entitled:
"What have I done...today...
to Seek the Kingdom of God"

 Diane Groves made a cake representing
the "3" degrees of Glory - each
level representing one of the
glories...She MADE the "Idaho Falls" TEMPLE
out of sugar cubes - (smile)

Each table had a scripture emphasizing our theme:
"Seek Ye First the Kingdom of God" (Matthew 6:33)
"Choose You this day whom ye shall serve..." (Joshua 24:15)
"Love One Another" (John 13:34)
"But Whom Say Ye that I Am" "Thou are the Christ, the Son
of the living God." (Matthew 16:15-16)
"I Will Go and Do" (1 Nephi 3:7)
"If Ye have experienced a change of heart...can Ye feel so now?" (Alma 5:26)
"Look to God and Live" (Alma 37:47)
"For I am NOT ashamed of the gospel of Christ!" (Romans 1:16)

Got to spend some time talking
with one another 

Social time

I was trying to avoid the camera
Julie Denney and Susan Robison laughing at me...
