Additional Relief Society Meetings

Purpose of Additional Relief Society Meetings

  • Relief Society prepares women for the blessings of eternal life (see Handbook 2,9.1.1).
  • They learn and practice skills that will help them increase their faith and personal righteousness, strengthen their families and make their homes centers of spiritual strength, and help those in need (see Handbook 2,9.4.2).
  • They learn and apply principles of provident living and spiritual and temporal self-reliance (see Handbook 2,9.4.2).
  • They increase in sisterhood and unity as they teach one another and serve together (see Handbook 2,9.4.2).

“When sisters meet for Relief Society meetings during the week, they have the opportunity to learn and accomplish the charitable and practical responsibilities of the Relief Society. This is where they learn and practice skills that will help them increase their faith and personal righteousness, strengthen families and homes, and provide service to those in need.”  -Julie Beck
