To know the history, purpose, and destiny of the Relief Society
The new Youth and Children program has been announced. At least, they’re giving us a little more information. We still have much to look forward to. But don’t regard this just for youth and children. It’s good for adults too. The way I understand, the program is more for individual goal setting in specific areas. […]
I’m a little slow, but I finally sat down and listened to some of the BYU Women’s Conference talks. They are now available on BYUtv. I enjoyed listening to the new Young Women Presidency. They were fun and told us a little about themselves. After reflecting a minute, and going over my notes, I correlated […]
When was the last time you read through the For the Strength of Youth pamphlet? You know, it isn’t just for youth. I have to admit, It’s been a while for me. A couple of months ago, I decided to work on my Personal Progress. (I’ll write about that experience in a future post.) There […]
Our guest post comes from Joyce Barrett Stephenson. When I was fifteen I was inspired to write a letter to myself at age twenty-five. I read this idea in a book, and thought it was a good one. So, on July 16, 1939, I wrote my letter and sealed it up. Managing to take this […]
Sometimes, I wonder if we are building as much character in our Young Women as we used to. 1916 BEEHIVE REQUIREMENTS In 1916, every female over fourteen was a Beehive girl until she entered Relief Society; there were no Mia Maids, Gleaners, or Laurels.

In my daughter’s single’s ward, they arranged to have the Elder’s Quorum President teach Relief Society, and the Relief Society President teach Elder’s Quorum. The RS President spoke about Pornography. The EQ President collected comments from the men about their feelings of immodesty. I share these revealing comments with you. “Yes, Modesty is more […]
I really love running into articles, written years ago, that echo what we need to hear today. Nothing has changed, yet everything has changed. No guilt trip intended; just think about it… THE PRESENT-DAY NEED FOR TRAINING OUR DAUGHTERS IN HOMEMAKING SKILLS “No matter what other interests a girl has in life, what line of […]
The Young Women’s organization began as the Cooperative Retrenchment Association in November 1869. President Brigham Young organized the society in the Lion House, his official residence in Salt Lake City, with his daughters as charter members. He challenged them to grow spiritually, to resist idleness and gossip, to retrench from the styles of the world […]
I haven’t needed to go out prom dress hunting much, so going out these past couple of days has been an eye opener. Living in Utah, I guess I had some assumptions that have now been cleared up and I am here to report both good and bad news. The bad news is that the […]
School is starting up. It’s always an exciting time of year with new clothes, new schools and classes, and new friends. It’s also a break for mom. Come on, admit it! You can actually have a couple of hours to do something you want to do, finally. But, then come the after school activities and […]
