I think of Relief Society. Sister Julie Beck, General President of the Relief Society said:

"To summarize, the purpose of Relief Society, as established by the Lord, is to organize, teach, and inspire His daughters to prepare them for the blessings of eternal life. I would like to say that again. The purpose of Relief Society, as established by the Lord, is to organize, teach, and inspire His daughters to prepare them for the blessings of eternal life."

Williard Richards said:

"The [Female Relief Sociey] was addressed by President Joseph Smith, to illustrate the object of the Society - that the Society of Sisters might provoke the brethren to good works in looking to the wants of the poor - searching after objects of charity, and administering to their wants - to assist by correcting the morals and strengthening the virtues of the community."
