Good morning everyone!
I was recently called to be the ward Physical Facilities Representative, but I am having trouble finding training and resources. Is there a Church webpage, manual, or other document(s) that I could study? The one resource I have found is the FIR app on my phone. So I can see what has been reported and file new reports, at least.
Thank you for any suggestions!

Here are some of the resources I have found so far. None are as comprehensive as I hope training or manuals would be, but they are a good start:
- A Church page with a short description: https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/cal ... p?lang=eng
- A link to the relevant section in the general handbook: https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/stu ... e_number20

Re: Facilities Representative Calling training & resources
The "Stake Building Representatives" page in the church callings link you reference, has a good video that also describes the training that they should provide to ward building representatives. As you've found, there's not a tremendous amount of globally available info for ward building reps; but as the video in the Stake Rep page outlines, the Stake Rep should have collected pertinent info from the local FM Group and other resources, and have training available that is specifically applicable to your ward/stake.evangardner wrote: ↑Tue Sep 17, 2024 6:22 am Good morning everyone!

So my suggestion is to contact the Stake Building Representative (often a High Councilor), and request training. Sometimes they'll organize something local for you, other times they may gather all the different ward reps together for a combo "new rep" / "refresher" training.
