Sister Assignment

From the stake 2010 guidance: (look for the orange)

Stake Temple Day of Service and Sacrifice. We will continue to build upon the incredible successes of the last three years in this year-long effort.

• Our stake goals for the temple day are:
• Increase by 5% the number of current recommend holders in each unit.
• Increase to 90% the number of MPH leaders set apart as veil workers in each unit.
• Increase to 10% of current recommend holders the number of members set apart as ordinance workers in each unit.
• Participation in the temple day by at least 800 endowed stake members.
• Completion of at least 2000 family file endowments.
• Increase to 75% the number of current recommend holders attending the 7^th floor Priesthood Assembly Room session.
• Our stake goals for endowed members are:
• Prepare at least one family file name and complete the baptism, confirmation and PH ordinations prior to the temple day.
• Complete the endowment for that person during the temple day.
• Complete two additional endowments during the temple day (one personal family file and two others for a minimum of three endowment sessions per person).
• Attend the 7^th floor Priesthood Assembly Room session.
• High Priest Group Leaders (HPGL) are responsible for leading this effort year around.
• HPGLs provide regular oversight of family history centers located in their buildings.
• Family history work to support our stake temple day should be underway year around.
• HPGLs should work closely with unit family history consultants and unit mission leaders to ensure all new converts and reactivated members prepare at least a few family names and then personally complete baptisms for the dead during the stake excursion and capitalize on unit FHC workshops and temple baptism trips.
• Collect and report temple metrics as directed to the assistant stake clerk.
• Apply the commitment pattern to every adult member in every unit as follows:
• Prepare them for the temple day experience through instruction and personal witness
• Invite them to prepare themselves to serve in the temple this year

• During October-May, focus on the following:
• Divide up, among the five organizations listed above, all unendowed males and females, and endowed members without current recommends and invite them as follows: “On behalf of the stake president, we invite you to prepare yourself to serve in the House of the Lord in August by attending a temple preparation class…”
• Ensure every adult referenced above is personally invited by the end of May to prepare and participate in the temple excursion
• Personally invite all endowed members with a current recommend from May through July
• Commit all worthy members to prepare at least one family name to take to the temple; complete their baptism, confirmation and ordination in advance; complete their endowment during the temple day; complete two other endowments that day; attend the 7^th floor meeting
• Provide them a “dance card” with their specific assignments
• Remind them of their assignments a day or two before the temple day
• Follow-up afterward to assess performance as a unit
