I have been trying to access my records and I keep getting data that I am not authorized to see my own records.
What can I do to rectify this?

This forum is only user-to-user support. We have no access to individual records. Please contact your ward clerk for assistance. If needed, he can contact the Global Service Center on your behalf.

The forum here is just for user-to-user help. No one here can do anything regarding your specific records or account.

Note, however, that the church does not provide online access to membership records for the general membership. Certain information shows in the LDS Tools app for mobile devices but there is no online access. If you wish to get a copy of your Individual Ordinance Summary (which shows the personal information the church has for you and any ordinance information) you need to ask your ward clerk to provide it.

Your ward clerk can also change your phone number on church records. If you need to change the phone number used for LDS Account recovery purposes, go to https://ldsaccount.lds.org. That phone number is different than the one visible in the ward directory and to church leaders.

You're not going to be able to do that with this account. It doesn't have a MRN (membership record number) associated with it. Consequently, the church systems doesn't know it's "you" and won't grant access to things like the directory or the calendar. That's why you're getting "access denied". It thinks you're a non-member.

You need to go to ldsaccount.lds.org and add the MRN to your account.
Have you searched the Help Center? Try doing a Google search and adding "site:churchofjesuschrist.org/help" to the search criteria.

So we can better help you, please edit your Profile to include your general location.
