Relief Society
(taken from LDS.org)
Relief Society prepares women for the blessings of eternal life by helping them increase their faith and personal righteousness, strengthen families and homes, and help those in need. As Relief Society sisters participate in the work of salvation, we become disciples of Jesus Christ. We strive to understand the doctrine of the atonement of Jesus Christ to increase our faith and our desire to live righteously. We participate in priesthood ordinances and cheerfully cleave to covenants made, which give us greater access to priesthood power, and strengthen our families and homes. Working in unity with priesthood brethren, we minister to and help those in need with charity, the pure love of Christ. Please visit LDS.org for more info. |
