Andrew,
I'm afraid I don't know much about the Stake side of things since I am a
Ward Clerk. I assume that the Church has given Stake Presidents (and
Bishops) on the system based on membership numbers, but I don't know that
for sure. Here is the help system for Stake Presidents (you can chan

Our stake has been using the online missionary system for almost a year
and it works very well. All you need to do is the same thing that I did
with my Bishop. Your Stake President needs to have an lds.org account.
All he needs to do is log into the system and give you permission to login

One thing to keep in mind is that once an account is created, it stays with
that member through all the wards. Since I created my stake & ward web site
account, I've moved twice and been in one ward reorganization. I love
knowing my online registration is linked to my membership record.

As previously mentioned, the two biggest factors in my ward that cause
ward leaders to dismiss the usefulness of the ward website are 1) Lack of
support in MLS and the Ward Websites for *personal* phone numbers (cell,

On the subject of ward e-mail, here's my 2 cents.
Our ward is not active with the lds.org remailer, either. I have not seen

I agree with Greg that the email

an overhaul.
Since this probably is not going
to happen right away, I will address
each feature below, and how we
handle them in my unit while we wait
