To know the history, purpose, and destiny of the Relief Society
Belle Spafford was president of the Relief Society for twenty years. The Church went through much growth and change during her presidency. It’s too bad most of the sisters in our Relief Society don’t know this vibrant, loveable, and intelligent woman. Read her bio here for a little background on her. Here are a […]
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 […]
When we travel, chances are very high that there is a temple nearby. My husband and I always like to make time to attend a temple session, wherever we go. It used to be an accomplishment to be able to say, “I’ve been to all of the temples.” Now that is next to impossible, but […]

Monson said in last month’s First Presidency message (Aug 2012): “All who have studied mathematics know what a common denominator is. For Latter-day Saints, there is a common denominator […]
Don’t Stop Now!–Suggestions For More Writing Go Back to Lesson 11. This is the last challenge for this course. I would love to hear about Relief Societies following this workshop, and hear some of the beautiful writings they’ve created. This is just one of the ways Relief Society sisters can help one another […]
