Relief Society Purpose

Relief Society Purpose: The Relief Society is an auxiliary to the priesthood. All auxiliary organizations exist to help Church members grow in their testimonies of Heavenly Father, Jesus Christ, and the restored gospel. Through the work of the auxiliaries, members receive instruction, encouragement, and support as they strive to live according to gospel principles.

Visiting Teaching
Visiting teachers are the hands of Relief Society and our Heavenly Father. Please visit and
look after the sisters you have been chosen to care for. Please remember to report to your
supervisor. Hopefully you can share a spiritual message each month, but whatever contact
you have been able to make, report. Thank you for your efforts. You never know when these
efforts will make the difference your sister needs in her life.
