    We teach self-reliance as a principle of life, that we ought toprovide for ourselves and take care of our own needs. And so

    we encourage our people to have something, to plan ahead,

    keepfood on hand, to establish a savings account, if possible,

    against a rainy day. Catastrophes come to people sometimes

    when least expectedunemployment, sickness, things of thatkind. The individual, as we teach, ought to do for himself all

    that he can. When he has exhausted his resources, he ought to turn to his

    family to assist him. When the family cant do it, the Church takes over.

    And when the Church takes over, our great desire is to first take care of his

    immediate needs and then to help him for so long as he needs to be helped,but in that process to assist him in training, in securing employment, in

    finding some way of getting on his feet again. Thats the whole objective of

    this great welfare program. President Gordon B. Hinckley, October 1996

    The order of welfare services
