It
has been 170 years since a small group of women met, with the Prophet Joseph on
a historic day that would shape the lives of millions of women to come. Do you ever step back and think of what it
really means to you to be a part of the Relief Society?
You are a member of the largest Women’s
organization on earth, and one with more power to do good than any other that
has ever existed, because we are organized under the power of the Priesthood,
the Power of God on earth.

| Actual notes and minutes of the very 1st Relief Society Meeting. |
If
you have a few quiet minutes to think about that today, maybe even take out
your journal and right down your feelings, I think that you, like me, might be
taking something very wonderful just a bit for granted.
If you have a few minutes today, this week, this month, there is a great site, all about the Relief Society--it has all kinds of things like bio's on each of the past general presidents, minutes from many of the beginning meetings, and many of the major projects the Relief Society has accomplished over the years.
