Ward Activity Coming Up!

*If you need a ride*  Meet in Snow (Creamery) Parking Lot @ 9:45 am

We will meet at Pavillon #2 on the East end of the park.  We will then walk the Provo River Trail for 1.1 miles to Bridal Veil Falls.

After contemplating the falls for a few minutes we will return to Canyon Glen Park for a brief fireside.  We will introduce our ward topic for the next six weeks and have a special celebrity guest speaker.  After the speaker and remarks by the bishop we will have food and games until around 12:00 - 12:30 pm.

It will be a beautiful day, it is a beautiful walk, and the guest speaker will be fabulous, so everyone should be there.

As usual, anyone who can drive will be greatly needed.

Hope to see you there!

Indexing

Brothers and Sisters,

The main requirement to do Indexing is having an LDS Account. 

In order to establish an LDS Account you need your Membership Record Number (MRN).

I will have the MRN for each member, please contact me to get yours.

Now, here is my preferred process for creating your LDS Account:

Go to lds.org, click on Tools, select Directory; this will take you to the "Sign in" page.

Click on "Register for an LDS Account" and follow the prompts.

When you have your "LDS Account", please sign in again (if necessary) and you will have access to the Provo YSA 49th Ward website.

Look for your personal contact information; Please edit your contact information to make it complete and accurate.

Also, for all those who already have an LDS Account, please edit your contact information to make it complete and accurate.

Editing your contact information will improve the membership records of our ward.

My (Assistant Ward Clerks) thank you, my wife thanks you, and I thank you.

 

And, of course, you are now ready to help the Temple/Indexing Committee with Indexing................
