Learn about the Relief Society

The Relief Society is a lifelong sisterhood for all women 18 and older. The Relief Society has the purpose of preparing God’s children to return to His presence and serving those in need. Women of this sisterhood follow the motto “Charity never faileth” (1 Corinthians 13:8).
