Relief Society an Enduring Legacy


This is a worldwide sisterhood
There are approximately 6 million sisters in Relief Society. Since its organization on March 17, 1842 by the Prophet Joseph Smith, Relief Society has spread throughout the world into nearly 170 countries.

"From it's founding in 1842..
Charity is at the heart of the Society ..
Because of that they have done and they are able to do uncommon things for others.
.. A work of salvation, service and becoming a holy people.
Every woman has a significant role to play in God's plan and the building up of his kingdom.
Relief Society needs You, and You need Relief Society."

"There is more to be done
It is time for Relief Society to fulfill its purpose as never before" (Julie B. Beck General President)
