"Unrestricted by programs and projects, bricks and mortar, the Lord’s
real storehouse is indeed in the homes and the hearts of His people. As
the members of the Church follow the counsel to become self-reliant,
they represent an immense pool of resources, knowledge, skills, and
charity available to help one another. This storehouse, the Lord has
said, is 'for the poor of my people, … to advance the cause, which ye
have espoused, to the salvation of man, and to the glory of your Father
who is in heaven.' (D&C 78:3–4.)"
Elder Robert D. Hales, "Welfare Principles To Guide Our Lives: An
Eternal Plan For The Welfare of Men's Souls," General Conference April
1986
