D&C 78:1-7: Electronic glue-in: Brother Johnson “The Lord’s storehouse . . . may be a list of available services, money in an account, food in a pantry, or commodities in a building. A storehouse is established the moment faithful members give to the bishop of their time, talents, skills, compassion, materials, and financial means in caring for the poor and in building up the kingdom of God on the earth. “The Lord’s storehouse, therefore, exists in each ward. The bishop is the agent of the Lord’s storehouse. Guided by inspiration from the Lord, he uses the Saints’ offerings to care for the poor and needy. He is assisted by the priesthood quorums and Relief Society” Providing in the Lord’s Way: A Leader’s Guide to Welfare [online welfare handbook, 2004]
