I am very happy to have nFS in our area - but the obstacles I encounter are VERY basic - like members being "scared of"/"shy about" family history and computers. I end up sitting with one sister getting her registered on nFS - teaching a brother on how to seek out a church record on the computer and getting it running on his computer at home. Some are self reliant in family history like maybe 10 - 15 persons out of our ward. I have had visions of glorious steps forward for our members entering nFS ------ :-) I have found that getting the single members registered on nFS and THEN teaching the basics in nFS and in record seeking is the best solution for us. Sometimes I come across someone eager and willing - though they are few and far in between. There is nothing wrong in wanting to step forward in a major way - but finding the step on the ladder where the member is far MORE IMPORTANT than being on nFS or not. And knowing WHEN nFS roll-out is universal can also become an issue on its own.

If it was all at once. the system will crash so it has to be gradual. Be glad it was because the first stage was good for first 6 districts, then the very next stage, there was widespread breakdown in Orlando Temple district. You won't believe the flak the hq got from that district. Right now the only areas not open to general LDS public is Utah and Idaho as well as the Far East countries.
