May I remind you of just how important the family unit is in the overall plan of our Father in heaven. In fact, the Church organization really exists to assist the family and its members in reaching exaltation.
Family unity and family commitment to the gospel are so important that the adversary has turned much of his attention to the destruction of families in our society. On every side there is an attack on the basic integrity of the family as the foundation of what is good and noble in life.
The family is the most important organization in time or in eternity. … It is the will of the Lord to strengthen and preserve the family unit.
President Joseph Fielding Smith - Teachings of Presidents of the Church: Joseph Fielding Smith, (2013), 72–81
