Is there an official stake conference report form that needs to be completed before or after a stake conference?

There is a form that is sent by the President Packer's office to the Stake President. The presiding authority or someone he assigns fills out the document. It basically reports on the attendance at the meetings, and the events or impressions from the messages at the conference.

This is probably obvious, but the Officers Sustained Form for the stake should be filled out ahead of time for the first stake conference of the year and then read during that stake conference, allowing members to sustain the general officers of the Church and the local stake officers.

After the stake conference is over, the form should be filed. At the end of the year, it should be included in the Annual History for Stakes and Districts.

I did this but noticed that it did not fill in automatically the names and callings from MLS.

Anyone else experience this?

Two possibilities:

- The positions have not been filled in.
- Someone didn't use the built-in positions and created custom ones. Either because they couldn't find the built-in ones or they weren't happy with the title.

A quick search of the forum brings up many threads with this question in it. Here is one very good response:

Computer form of Stake Conference Report?

Is there a computer form of the Stake Conference Report or do we still have to use the stubby pencil format?

I've got a question about the stake conference report. Let's say a general authority visits your conference. At the conclusion of the conference, the stake clerk provides him with the statistical information for the top of the form. Now, who fills out the rest of the form regarding the summary and notes for the next visiting authority? Does the general authority fill that portion out or does the stake clerk do it?

Normally the visiting authority does it.

In my 9 years as a stake clerk, when there has a visiting GA for stake conference, I filled out the general information at the top of the form, added the attendance and gave him the form. He took it and I never saw it again. A filled in copy has never been sent back for inclusion in our stake history.

A paper version of that form is sent by President Packer's office to the stake president for stake conferences where the stake president presides; when a General/Area authority presides, he typically brings it with him.

If you want an electronic version of the forum, the stake clerk can call President Packer's office. When I was a stake clerk, I did that and they sent a Word document that was easy to fill out.
Questions that can benefit the larger community should be asked in a public forum, not a private message.

Last month, Elder Cardon said I must have set some sort of record when I e-mailed our stake conference report to him in Word format, with the top portion already filled in before he arrived for our conference. He still gave me the blank paper form, even though it was not needed. It is just part of the packet they receive.
