To know the history, purpose, and destiny of the Relief Society
Only recently have parents begun teaching their children openly about inappropriate sexual relations. In the past, this was a taboo subject and children were left to learn from friends off the street or personal experience. Today, parents are fighting back. They are stepping up with open conversations to protect their children from the pain and […]
For years I have sat in Relief Society classes where unknowing sisters would use all class time figuring out who held keys of the priesthood. How I wish they had known about this talk to truly understand and explain the blessings of having the keys of the priesthood. Elder McConkie, in a very simple and […]
This is a General Conference Odyssey post for the Sunday morning session of October 1982. The other day, my husband and I were doing sealings when the sealer asked us what “rites” are. Ever since I’ve been thinking about what our “rites” and “privileges” are in this church. And I feel like the talks in […]
This General Conference Odyssey post is on the Saturday morning session of October 1982. After reading this week’s session of talks I went to Sacrament meeting and listened to the speaker quote from this very talk. Of all things!! The talk I’d like to focus on today is David B. Haight’s talk, “Love All.” We hear […]

A General Conference Odyssey post. Years ago, while teaching a Gospel Doctrine class, I was to cover Ephesians. The first part was about marriage and the second part was the Armor of God. Who doesn’t like the armor of God lesson, right? I asked a big, burly guy to help me with this part of […]
President Nelson has asked us to re-energize Relief Society by understanding our purpose. We have a destiny, sisters, and he is calling on us to position ourselves, so we can become a vital part in preparing the world to receive its king, even Jesus Christ. Feeling a Part of Relief Society If you don’t feel […]
You know, I have to admit, I don’t understand people that say gospel-based activities are boring. Gospel-based would be discussions about the scriptures, the church, Jesus Christ, etc. Basically, anything that strengthens our personal testimonies. All the Relief Societies I’ve ever been in feel like they have to entertain the sisters rather than feed them […]
This is a General Conference Odyssey post for the April 1981 Sunday afternoon session. With General Conference coming, we might reflect, once again, upon how we will react to the work we have all been called to do and will be reminded of. What is our errand in the work of the Lord? Back in […]
This is a post on the Priesthood session of April 1981. President Marion G. Romney talks about the covenants we make as members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Sometimes, I find myself sitting in a church class discussing doctrine as if it’s something we have to still figure out or work […]
