Visiting Teaching Message

The History and Heritage of Relief Society

In the coming months, each Visiting Teaching Message will give us the opportunity to learn more about the history of Relief Society and its part in the restored gospel. For many reasons, understanding our history is not only important but essential.

Understanding our history helps make us an effective part of the future of Relief Society.  President Spencer W. Kimball explained, "We know that women who have deep appreciation for the past will be concerned about shaping a righteous future."
