To know the history, purpose, and destiny of the Relief Society
When we are given the responsibility of instrumentation (interpret this as being instruments in the hands of God), through a calling, opportunity, or inspiration other people are relying on us to succeed. If we really understood this, I am positive we would act differently. Let’s take our Callings: Most of us have Callings. Our Callings […]
This month’s visiting teaching message is our choice from all of the General Conference addresses. With Sister Beck’s release, I decided to look up all of her talks over the past five years, read them, and figure out what her legacy is. It wasn’t hard to figure out, because she came out of the shoot […]
Back in 1942, the Relief Society set out to celebrate the 100th Anniversary of this great organization.

This year Christmas is on a Sunday. What a great opportunity this is for us to create a holy season for our children, friends, and family. We all suspect Christ may, or may not, have been born on December 25th. In fact, this date was actually a pagan holiday, originally. Not much has changed over […]
I half-heartedly apologize for this rambling post. At the beginning of the year, I set a goal to read the New Testament, along with Sunday School class.
