Called as the ward clerk a month ago. The Bishop asked be to order a new Limited Use Temple Recommend Book. How do I do that?

Thanks

Phone the GSC general number. Have your unit number etc.. available. Alternatively there should be an order form with the Temple Books, if you are the US or Canada.

There is an order form in the recommend notebook that the bishop has. If you need a rush order you can call GSC.

Isn't there a website to do this on? Also, you refer to a GSC number. Some of us are REALLY new. i don't even know what a GSC number is?

GSC = Global Service Center (follow the link for contact options).
Questions that can benefit the larger community should be asked in a public forum, not a private message.

Unfortunately these books can't be ordered online. It is necessary to order them via the telephone. If you're not the Bishop, you will need to confirm his details, including his address.

I have seen some limited use recommends that look similar to a regular recommend, rather than having spaces for 20 names for a group. When ordering, how do you differentiate between group and individual limited use recommends?

When you order by phone, the employee or missionary at the Global Service Center should be able to help you make sure you get the correct ones.

I wonder if ordering this book will become obsolete with this latest announcement:
Limited-use temple recommend
A new limited-use recommend can be created online by priesthood leaders and printed from any computer and printer. It is activated when it is printed, and the bishop simply needs to sign it, along with the candidate, Elder [Kent F. ] Richards said.

The article made it sound like it was already available. "A new limited-use recommend can be created online by priesthood leaders..."

The other items talked about in that article, printing family ordinance cards at home and family priority time at the temple are both available now too.

It is in limited beta.

It has now. See the March 29, 2016, First Presidency Letter at the Official Communication Library.

Limited Use Temple Recommends are now processed using LCR. If you require the Full Temple Recommend Book, these are ordered by telephone from GCS, using the Store option. A Ward Clerk can normally order these on behalf of the Bishop. The email address could be gsc-eu-en@ldschurch.org They will certainly know where to direct the request.

As Biggles mentioned almost two years ago in the post prior to yours, Limited Use recommends are now issued using the computer through Leader and Clerk Resources. If you are not familiar with that process, you or your clerk may wish to contact your district clerk or president for information on how this is done.
