A Plea to My Sisters

‘We need women who are organized and women who can organize. We need women with executive ability who can plan and direct and administer; women who can teach, women who can speak out. 

“‘We need women with the gift of discernment who can view the trends in the world and detect those that, however popular, are shallow or dangerous’ [“The Relief Society,” Ensign, Nov. 1978, Boyd K Packer].

 

“Today, let me add that we need women who know how to make important things happen by their faith and who are courageous defenders of morality and families in a sin-sick world. We need women who are devoted to shepherding God’s children along the covenant path toward exaltation; women who know how to receive personal revelation, who understand the power and peace of the temple endowment; women who know how to call upon the powers of heaven to protect and strengthen children and families; women who teach fearlessly” (“A Plea to My Sisters,” Ensign or Liahona, Nov. 2015, Boyd K Packer).
