Members of the Relief Society of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, along with friends and young women who will turn 18 in 2026, are warmly invited to take part in a special worldwide broadcast and local gatherings celebrating the sisterhood found in the gospel of Jesus Christ.
The devotional will feature messages from Elder Quentin L. Cook of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles and the Relief Society General Presidency: President Camille N. Johnson, Sister J. Anette Dennis, and Sister Kristin M. Yee. Together, they will extend an invitation to come unto the Savior and find strength, healing, and relief through Him and through one another.
Relief Society groups are encouraged to gather as wards, branches, or stakes on or near March 17, marking the anniversary of the Relief Society’s organization. Local gatherings may include a testimony meeting and should begin and end with prayer. The 30–40 minute broadcast will be available for download beginning March 8, 2026.
President Johnson shared that the messages were prepared with a deep awareness of the needs of sisters everywhere. “There is healing and strength when sisters gather together,” she said. “In these moments, the Savior allows us to feel His love through one another. He knows your heart and your circumstances, and we have felt His love for each of you.”
Sister Dennis emphasized the power of unity and encouragement found in Relief Society. “The Lord is with us as we turn to Him,” she said. “He asks us to support each other, and we look forward to being together as sisters to feel His love and to cheer each other on.”
In addition to the broadcast, several short discussion videos will be released on March 8, featuring members of the Relief Society General Advisory Council. These two- to four-minute videos are designed to support meaningful discussion and reflection and can be used with the broadcast or throughout the year in Relief Society meetings, activities, conferences, and personal study.
Topics include finding strength in Jesus Christ, managing competing priorities, building emotional resilience, staying faithful through hardship or offense, and recognizing God’s divine design in family life. “We are all sisters in the Lord’s work,” Sister Yee said. “Each of us is learning and growing through His grace. We hope this broadcast and additional resources help you to feel His love and grow together.”
The broadcast will be available beginning March 8 on broadcasts.churchofjesuschrist.org, the Gospel library app, and the Living the Gospel YouTube channel. Discussion videos will also be accessible on ChurchofJesusChrist.org and Gospel Library. All resources will be offered in a wide range of languages to bless sisters around the world.
