As Sisters in Zion

Lucy Mack Smith, mother of the Prophet, in speaking to the sisters in Nauvoo, said “We must cherish one another, and watch over one another, and gain instruction that we may all sit down in heaven together” (Minutes, 24 March 1842). The history of Relief Society has shown that women of the Church have not had to wait to sit together in heaven to taste the sweet fruit of the kind of activities she described. They have experienced much of heaven on earth as in life they have cherished one another, comforted one another, and instructed one another.
