To know the history, purpose, and destiny of the Relief Society
Is anyone else feeling concern about our government and economic situation? I hear lots of people anxiously say, “What’s going to happen to us?” Of course, I’m concerned too, but my pat answer is, “We should be happy to be surrounded by so much corruption and despair; it only means the Lord will be here […]
When people ask you how you’re doing and what you’ve been doing lately, what is your pat answer? Let me know if this sounds familiar: “Oh, I’ve been busy doing stuff; I’m involved in this, and this, and this, and this, and I just never have any time anymore!” We are a busy bunch of […]
Do you remember how big an issue The Equal Rights Amendment was back in the 70’s? I remember how BYU campus was empty of students as everyone was glued to a TV set to watch the Donahue Show where Sister Barbara Smith appeared with Sonia Johnson. Sis. Smith was the President of the Relief Society […]
“You were entrusted to come to the earth in these last days to do again what you did before.” This bold statement comes from Elder James J. Hamula’s Conference talk, Winning the War against Evil. This was a talk geared for the young men, but I feel it is worthwhile for mothers to hear it. […]

I’m still reading through my conference talks. My favorites list keeps growing, and I just have to express some of my thoughts, so here’s my take on You Know Enough, by Elder Neil L. Andersen.

I’m going to go out on a ledge and reprint an article found in the Woman’s Exponent from March 1, 1874. I am printing it in its entirety. It doesn’t give a date, or time period, and it doesn’t say how the editors of the Exponent found it, but it is interesting nevertheless. Mr. […]
As part of the Thanksgiving Holiday, I thought, Thanks in Hebrew would be very appropriate. Thanks in Hebrew is pronounced, Todah and looks like this: תודה The first character is the Tav, ת , and represents a sacred enclosure or specifically the Holy of Holies or Temple. The second character is the Vav, ו , […]
This is a phrase that we are all very much familiar with but sometimes bristle at because it sounds so hard and difficult. In Hebrew the idea of end has a more positive thought or feeling. End means more like complete, full or perfect. We would endure to the end of the Plan of Happiness […]
I don’t know about you, but listening to Conference addresses is a wonderful experience and blessing in my life. The words from our prophets are truly inspiring, thought provoking, and life changing, but only if we let them be. I can’t ever pick a favorite talk. When I get my Ensign, I read each of […]
