"The women of the Church have long observed March 17, 1842, as the founding day of the Relief Society, Many are familiar with the story of Sarah Kimball and her seamstress wanting to make shirts for the men working on the Nauvoo Temple, and of the meeting with Joseph Smith over the Red Brick Store. But few know of the lives of the twenty women who were in that meeting the day Relief Society was begun. In these pages we acknowledge their compassion and their commitment and recognize the importance of their desire to unite their efforts in furthering the cause of Zion." [Author]
