“The Lord has a work for women as well as for men. They may take their places in His work at this crisis, and He will work through them. . .They can do in families a work that men cannot do, a work that reaches the inner life. They can come close to the hearts of those whom men cannot reach. Their labor is needed.”
—Welfare Ministry, p. 145.
"If men and women would act as the Lord's helping hand, doing deeds of love and kindness, uplifting the oppressed, rescuing those ready to perish, the glory of the Lord would be their reward.... They would call, and the Lord would answer, “Here am I.” They would turn to the One close beside them, who has given them the promise, “Lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world.”
—Manuscript Releases 16:73, 74 (1901).
