To know the history, purpose, and destiny of the Relief Society
I am very, very grateful that I don’t have to become perfect in all things. I was sent down onto this imperfect world, as an imperfect being, to work out my imperfectness imperfectly. Yet, I still manage to beat myself up. Why do I keep going around in circles? Why can’t I figure it all out? […]
General Conference Odyssey post: Saturday morning session, October 1971 The session spoke of standing in the light. It’s impossible to justify away these words from our living prophets, spoken to us almost 45 years ago. Can I just express my gratitude in their divine fore-warnings? We are foolish not to listen more carefully today. Harold B. Lee […]
It seems that more and more often, we’ll hear people complain about the adversity around them. “Why is life so hard?” “Why did that have to happen?” “Why is there so much suffering in the world?” “Why me?” “Why isn’t it fair?” We need to remember that adversity is an important component of the Plan […]

We live in a fast-paced, violent-loving, action-packed environment and often brag about how […]
While serving as a docent, at the Church History Museum, we used to say that the Museum was the best-kept secret in Salt Lake City. I always enjoyed sharing the stories of our Church History. The Church History Museum has been closed all of this past year redesigning the entire main floor and I […]
I decided that I wanted to study the gospel more in depth this year. I will thoroughly enjoy reading the Book of Mormon again, in its entirety, but I also wanted to add gospel topic study, so this year I am going to take the Relief Society lessons and study them in depth. These […]
Everyone seems to be talking about The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and their recent stand on same-sex family policies. I wasn’t going to add to the conversation until someone took a post I wrote to malign the church. Right here and now, I want to state clearly that I support the LDS […]
