Sister Sadie Cadman had, from her youth, a wonderful ambition to work for the cause of Christ as a missionary. It was out of this desire that Sister Sadie Cadman's mind was inspired to do something for the women of the Church and help in spreading the gospel.

In January of 1920 Sister Sadie asked and was granted permission to create an organization for the women of the Church. The decision to call the new organization "The Ladies' Uplift Circle" was given by revelation to Sister Violet Sarver. The sisters felt God prompted this work and they expressed great joy as they discussed their role as women in The Church of Jesus Christ.

The Ladies' Uplift Circle continues to provide opportunities for today's women of the Church to work cooperatively for the missionary and charitable needs of the gospel.

We pledge ourselves to read and search the Scriptures and ask God to direct and bless our Ladies' Uplift Circle in every way. We will do our duty in visiting the sick; we will neither find fault nor offend in word or deed, but will be a help to each other and help others to the best of our ability.Aims and Structure

Aims:

• To assist The Church of Jesus Christ in its Missionary work, especially among God's Covenant People, the American Native and also among the Gentiles.
• To promote a close fellowship among sisters throughout the Church by praying and sharing their problems and joys with one another.
• To attract nonmembers of the Church.
• To provide wholesome, beneficial study of God's Word and opportunities for meaningful service.

Local Circles have been organized within branches and missions throughout the United States, Canada, Mexico, India and Africa. The Local Circles report to their Area Circles. The General Circle is then composed of the Area and Local Circles with each being subordinate to the General Circle.
