A Thought on Relief Society

"Sisters, we’re not a social club, though deep friendships form from our sisterhood. We are not, as I heard a young woman say, ‘the old women who meet on Sunday.’ We have power when we use it: power given to us through God to accomplish His purposes. We are the world’s largest women’s organization. As we reach into our communities with the knowledge and inspiration the Lord has granted us, we can help lead a world that needs our guidance. It’s what the Prophet Joseph expected; it’s what President Hinckley expects of us today.”

Kathleen H. Hughes, “In Covenant with Him,” Liahona, Nov 2003, 108–10
