ParticipantCombining high priests and elder’s quorum. That’s a good move. April 1, 2018 at 12:30 am #228802Old-Timer
KeymasterI agree, and it is a MAJOR change. My eyes about popped out of my head. Ironically, the men now mirror the organization of the Relief Society.

ParticipantIt doesn’t really change anything for me since I’m in a YSA ward, but I think it will help with the issue with tiny quorums in family wards. It will help a ton for rural areas and otherwise geriatric wards. April 1, 2018 at 12:33 am #228804DarkJedi
ParticipantWe have been meeting together a couple weeks per month for some time just to have a critical mass. Good move. I’m eager to hear more. April 1, 2018 at 12:36 am #228805Old-Timer
KeymasterI am glad he said explicitly that they don’t want High Priests taking over Elders Quorum, that they want the new presidencies to be comprised of current High Priests and Elders. April 1, 2018 at 12:38 am #228806Old-Timer

That one has been coming for awhile.

ParticipantHBE is advocating pushy home teaching. Gross. There is a silver lining at least. She was at least able to get help from them. It’s going past the checklisting.

ParticipantSo with no PEC, is this a Sunday with no other meeting except for Bishopric meeting? How often is correlation meeting held? This was the biggest time consumer when I was Bishop. Every Sunday we had bishopric meeting, then PEC or correlation. April 1, 2018 at 1:14 am #228812Old-Timer
KeymasterBeefster, the overall story is a good one. We can take multiple views of parts of it, but the story itself is a good one – especially his focus at the end on charity. April 1, 2018 at 1:17 am #228813Beefster
ParticipantTBF, I have been tuning things out somewhat. I just fear that some members will cherry pick from that story and weaponize it. April 1, 2018 at 1:23 am #228814Old-Timer
KeymasterSure, they might – but that is on them and isn’t really different than us using it as a weapon. We shouldn’t do what we fear others will do. That is important to recognize for internal peace.
