Welfare Services: The Gospel in Action
President Spencer W. Kimball
President of the Church
A generation after 1936, leaders must relearn welfare principles—love, service, work, self-reliance, consecration, stewardship—to build Zion.
“lengthen our stride”
“there was no poor among them”
“the temporal and the spiritual are blended”
“Work brings happiness, self-esteem, and prosperity.”
“Isn't the plan beautiful?”
