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.”

Your Divine Nature and Destiny


"Sisters, I testify that when you stand in front of your Heavenly Parents
in those royal courts on high and look into Her eyes and behold
Her countenance, any question you ever had about the
role of women in the kingdom will evaporate into the
rich celestial air, because at that moment you will see
standing directly in front of you,
YOUR DIVINE NATURE and DESTINY."

Educate a MOTHER/WOMAN...You Educate a Whole Family


Quote By: President Spencer W. Kimball

"As I visit the missions in the world, I hear the young men bear their testimonies.  They say, 'My mother told me this. . . . my mother is prime, she's first.'  She really is first, and if all women could understand this, they would want to have families instead of following the present fad . . . It has been said that 'When you educate a man, you educate an individual, but when you educate a woman, you educate a whole family' (Dr. Charles D. McIver).  We want our women to be well educated, for children may not recover from the ignorance of their mothers" (Charge to Religious Educators, 1983, p. 43-47). 

 
Alma 57:21 

"Yea, and they did obey and observe to perform every word of command with exactness; yea, and even according to their faith it was done unto them; and I did remember the words which they said unto me that their mothers had taught them."

Ribbon Wreath Plates

Ribbon Wreath Plates

Pile Treats on these Ribbon Wreath Plates

Hello my little blog readers.  Happy Tuesday!  This a fun and simple way to dress up a paper plate when you share your Holiday treats (or just because you want to be a little more festive), because we all know the Holidays are a little more special with yummy treats.

Supplies for Holiday Ribbon Plates:
  • paper plates, any color or size (you can use plastic plates, but they’re harder to punch)
  • hole punch
  • ribbon, craft ribbon or curling ribbon
  • treats
Punch holes about every inch all the way around. Then pick a spot to start and thread the ribbon through each hole.
There are a few ways you can thread the ribbon. It can be up and down or around and around. Both look pretty, so it just depends on your preference.
Once the ribbon has been through each hole, make sure both ends are even to tie it together in a bow. Now fill them with some of your favorite treats and they’re ready for family and friends! Happy Holidays!
You can do this pretty much any time you wanted to dress something up….

For example:
Halloween




Thanksgiving

Christmas

Valentine's Day

St.Patty's Day

Easter

4th of July

Anything!!!!  I’m so glad I saw this today….it’s such a cheap yet cute way to dress up a treat plate.

We Witnessed and Approved the Selection of Christ

"At the first organization in heaven
WE WERE ALL PRESENT,
and saw the SAVIOR CHOSEN
and appointed and the plan of salvation made, 
and WE SANCTIONED IT."
