President Harold
B. Lee was always an advocate of teaching
gospel principles in the home. Often, he reminded Saints
that no success in life can compensate for failure
in our homes and families. In October of
1964, President Lee reminded members of the Church
that the correlation system was established to
bless the family. From the Pulpit in General
Conference he declared, First, we must see that the
whole effort of correlation is to strengthen the
home and to give aid to the home and its problems. Second, the priesthood
strength must be fully employed within the total responsibility
of priesthood Quorums, as clearly set forth
in the Revelations. And third, to
survey the purposes lying behind the
creation and purpose of each auxiliary organizations. And fourth, that the prime and
ultimate objective of all that is done, is the building up
of knowledge of the Gospel, a promotion of
the faith, growth, and stronger testimony of
the principles of the Gospel among the members of the Church.
