The question to ask now might be "how many members within my ward/stake/scope of my calling are not doing their FHC and why not?" > > > > > From: Jean Weber > Sent: Tuesday, June 23, 2009 8:10 PM > To: lds-ward-consultant@rootsweb.com > Subject: Re: [LDS-WC] How many members do genealogy > > > Thank you Kathy.
