You Too Can Be a Woman of the Companions

You Too Can Follow the Women Companions' Example

"You are the tender embrace we turn to when life's hardships overwhelm us; the shoulder we cannot do without, however delicate; the support we lean on, however gentle. You raise the people who become heroes.

You are not incomplete, nor a weak creature to be pitied. You are half of society, and you give birth to and raise the other half. Every man was once a child in your womb, nourished by your health and strength. Every king, leader, thinker, wealthy or successful person was once a tiny baby in your hands. You nurtured prophets and helped shape great people. Hold your head high."
