Tidbits from our Relief Society Lesson

Relief Society: True Charity and Pure Religion

"No institution was ever founded with a nobler aim.  Its basis is true charity, which is the pure love of Christ."

The Relief Society was organized…by the Prophet Joseph Smith, under the inspiration of the Lord…Today it is recognized as one of the most powerful forces for good in the Church…

You, my sisters, as members of the Relief Society and as mothers in Israel, should exercise all your influence…in favor of pure motherhood and faithfulness to the marriage covenant.

Ponder ways you have been led to be “where God wants [you] to be.”  How has God helped you in these efforts?
