This was a thoughtful gift handed out to the women at church for Mother’s Day and I’ve also seen it done with a Christmas towel / theme as well. It’s an idea worth sharing since it’s simple and costs very little. Copy and paste the thoughtful words below into a document with a graphic of your choosing. (I can’t give you the one seen here because the rights to the illustration don’t belong to me.) This was printed on half of an 8.5 x 11 sheet. And tied up neatly with the towel. "At first glance it is easy to look at a towel as a most ordinary object. Have you ever stopped to think that for thousands of years, the towel has been used for many wonderful purposes? For example, the mother who wipes the tears of a child, the physician who binds the wounds of a patient, or the woman in her home wiping her hands as she moves from task to task. Perhaps the most significant use of the towel happened over two thousand years ago when our Savior, only hours before He hung on the cross, took an ordinary towel in His loving hands and dried the feet of His disciples. This simple, loving act personifies the selflessness and loving service we seek to give during our lives. It illustrates that an ordinary thing like a towel, in the right hands, and with a giving heart, can lighten another’s load. As with every action performed by the Savior on this Earth, His act of service reminds us that simple day-to-day-kindnesses are the Savior’s way to bless and comfort. This towel is given with love and with the hope you will do works of goodness with it as the Savior did so many years ago." Note: This thought has been shared so often online, I can’t find the original author. If you know who it is, please notify me, I’d like to give proper credit.

I love the "Purpose of Relief Society" statement and was excited when Sister Linda K. Burton, General President of the Relief Society, announced the update on Facebook (if you don't follow her, you should)! Since then, I've had dozens of requests to make it up as a subway... plus, with it also being the 175th birthday of the RS, I thought it would also make a fun and fitting freebie! I did it in 4 color variations and 3 sizes: 8x10, 11x14 and 16x20 - perfect for your bulletin boards! Please PIN first, then download HERE!

On March 17, 1842, women of unrelenting faith and zeal gathered together in the upper room of Joseph Smith’s Red Brick Store as the first organization of the Relief Society was formed. Since its inception, the Relief Society has become one of the largest women’s organization in the world and has given countless hours of […]
My very first year of seminary I had an amazing teacher. We’re talking the rockstar of all CES employees. This guy had the seminary spirit in bucketloads. I sat there every day, with a bunch of other 7th graders, totally captivated with what he was teaching us. But even out of all those lessons, this…

We have LOVED working on RS Lesson Kits - picking out quotes, coming up with a creative handout for each one; it really has been a cool experience to dive into the lessons that way. Sadly though, MANY of you don't teach RS or are serving in other organizations, but have expressed how you wished you could get the tags to use in your non-RS calling without having to buy each full lesson kit... (since you don't need lesson visuals, word strips, etc). SO... we decided to make a handout/quote bundle for you!! CHURCH HANDOUT BUNDLE As we looked back over the last 12 Lesson Kits, we realized each handout and quote isn't "Relief Society-Centric" at all... these are tid-bits of basic gospel principles that apply to all of us! From prayer and testimony - to resurrection and restoration - to the gift of the holy ghost and being daughters of God... so many AWESOME topics are covered! These tags can easily be used for lessons in any class, organization or activity... or even used as VT drop-bys or maybe there's one that would be just the right nudge of encouragement for someone you love! So, whether you are in YW, Activity Days, Primary, Seminary, Sunday School or RS - this bundle will be a great one to have at your fingertips! Here's a close up of each tag and quote... However you decide to use them - they are now available OUTSIDE the Lesson Kits and come in a bundle of 12 tag/handouts (with suggestions) + 12 quotes on coordinating topics. Each one, of course, derived from the Gordon B. Hinckley Lesson Manual. We'll make a second bundle at the end of the year that will combine all the handouts and quotes she does for July-December.

July 5—RS Presidency Message July 12—Ch. 36 “Receiving the Ordinances and Blessings of the Temple” July 19— Ch 37 “Charity, the Pure Love of Christ” July 26— Gen Conf Talk (April 2009) July Visiting Teaching Message: Visiting Teaching Message Qualify for and Partake of Temple Worship Ensign, July 2009 Teach these scriptures and quotations or, if needed, another principle that will bless the sisters you visit. Bear testimony of the doctrine. Invite those you visit to share what they have felt and learned. How Can I Prepare for Temple Worship? Silvia H. Allred, first counselor in the Relief Society general presidency: "The temple is the house of the Lord. He directs the conditions under which it may be used, the ordinances that should be administered, and the standards that qualify us to enter. … Personal worthiness is an essential requirement to enjoy the blessings of the temple. We prepare by obeying the commandments and seeking to do God's will" ("Holy Temples, Sacred Covenants," Liahona and Ensign, Nov. 2008, 113). Elder David B. Haight (1906–2004) of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles: "We who would attend the temple must be living in a manner which helps us be worthy to enter and fully partake. … We examine our worthiness to enter the temple in … interviews with priesthood leaders. Our signature, with theirs, on our temple recommend testifies of our worthiness to enter the temple" ("Come to the House of the Lord," Ensign, May 1992, 15). What Are the Blessings of Qualifying for and Partaking of Temple Worship? D&C 110:7: "I will manifest myself to my people in mercy in this house." President Howard W. Hunter (1907–95): "Let us hasten to the temple as frequently as time and means and personal circumstances allow. Let us go not only for our kindred dead, but let us also go for the personal blessing of temple worship, for the sanctity and safety which is provided within those hallowed and consecrated walls. The temple is a place of beauty, it is a place of revelation, it is a place of peace" ("The Great Symbol of Our Membership, " Tambuli, Nov. 1994, 6; Ensign, Oct. 1994, 5). D&C 38:32: "I will give unto you my law; and there you shall be endowed with power from on high" (see also D&C 95:8). Elder Robert D. Hales of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles: "Elder Robert D. Hales of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles: "The temple endowment blessings are as essential for each of us as was our baptism. For this reason we are to prepare ourselves that we may be clean to enter into the temple of God. Temple work is an opportunity to perform our personal endowments and covenants for the living and also perform these same ordinances for the redemption for the dead. It is for this reason we are instructed in the scriptures to build temples and prepare our lives to be worthy to partake of the sacred temple ordinances and covenants. …" ""The primary purpose of the temple is to provide the ordinances necessary for our exaltation in the celestial kingdom. Temple ordinances guide us to our Savior and give us the blessings that come to us through the Atonement of Jesus Christ" ("Temple Blessings," in Brigham Young University 2005-2006 Speeches [2006], 1, 4). President Gordon B. Hinckley (1910–2008): "Every man or woman who goes to the temple in a spirit of sincerity and faith leaves the house of the Lord a better man or woman. There is need for constant improvement in all of our lives. There is need occasionally to leave the noise and the tumult of the world and step within the walls of a sacred house of God, there to feel His spirit in an environment of holiness and peace" ("Of Missions, Temples, and Stewardship," Ensign, Nov. 1995, 53). © 2009 Intellectual Reserve, Inc.
