I am the stake executive secretary. Why do the instructions for patriarchs tell the patriarch to obtain a paper copy of the recommend from the member when the patriarch can print the recommend from the system by clicking on the member's name (hyperlink) in the submission section of the Overview page?

I do not believe that all stakes use the online system just yet, so that may be a factor in the status of the instructions.

The counselor in our bishopric is trying to issue a recommend for a patriarchal blessing but the menu doesn't appear under his login. He can get to the page but it's blank.

This subject does not appear to have generated much interest but I will give the answer that I received from PBFeedback anyway. They indicated that the "Help" instructions would change later this year and that the member should continue to bring that paper recommend that the bishop can print for them at the time they are interviewed and recommended by the bishop.

What exactly is the PBSS link so I can’t help the patriarch submit the blessings to our area president. I am the scribe. We’re new to this calling. We live in Tongatapu, pacific island.

You can also get to this link by logging on to lds.org, going to Leader and Clerk Resources, then click the Applications tab and click "Patriarchal Blessings Submission" in the list. The above link should take you to a login page first, and then to the patriarchal blessings page after you log in.

As a stake patriarch in the Grandview South Stake (Provo, Utah), I need a little assistance to make a small edit in a blessing given on November 10, 2019 to [name redacted]. Can you help me bring up the blessing for this small edit? Or, make the edit for me? --Patriarch [name redacted] ([email address redacted]_.

I am the patriarch . . . . I need to make a correction on a patriarchal blessing I gave . . . .
I spelled his name wrong twice in the first paragraph and once in the beginning of the second paragraph. On his first name, I left out the letter I. Thank you.

This is a public forum. Your stake clerk should be able to give you contact information for the Global Services Department. The GSD will be able to tell you how to make the changes.

Thank you for your faithful service as a patriarch in blessing the lives of the members of your stake.
