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.”

NO OTHER OBJECT IN VIEW...

"This he forbade me, saying
that I must have NO OTHER OBJECT 
in view...
but to GLORIFY God, 
and must not be INFLUENCED by any other MOTIVE
than that of building his kingdom..."

To Our YOUNG MOTHERS...

My daughter made this post on her blog, yesterday (copied it below) 
knowing how many YOUNG MOTHERS would RELATE to her post...However, I couldn't help but leaving my comment with the following 
quote...

For all you "worn out" YOUNG mothers...In the Conference Report, October 1942, pp. 12-13...the First Presidency made this declaration: "Motherhood is near to DIVINITY. It is the HIGHEST, HOLIEST SERVICE to be assumed by mankind. It places her who honors its holy CALLING and SERVICE next to the ANGELS." 

Take heart...one day...your rooms will be in order, again......till the "grandchildren" come to visit...(smile)

We would be IMMOVABLE...

“What a different world and Church this would be if every Latter-day Saint sister excelled at making, renewing, and keeping covenants; if every sister qualified for a temple recommend and worshipped more often in temples; if every sister studied the scriptures and doctrines of Christ and knew them so well that she could teach and defend those doctrines at any time or place.  Think of our combined strength if every sister…prayed unceasingly as the Lord has commanded.  If every family had family prayer daily and had a family home evening once a week, we would be stronger.  If every sister was self-reliant enough to be able to give freely of her knowledge, talents, and resources and if every sister’s discipleship was reflected by what she said and what she wore, we would be immovable in that which is correct.”  
(Julie B. Beck, What Latter-day Saint Women Do Best: Stand Strong and Immovable, Ensign, Nov 2007)
