Household Home Teaching Quorum Assignments - LCR

How does one reassign/change the Home Teaching Quorum Assignment for a household in LCR? Currently have about 15 households that have been assigned to High Priest Group that should be assigned to Elders. Any help would be appreciated.

You cannot change the HT quorum assignment. You can, however, assign the households to home teachers. Call up the companionship who will home teach under the elders quorum and type in the name of the household. You will be able to add them to the companionship assignments.

Any insight on when this capability will be available? It makes it very difficult for the Elder's Quorum Presidency and the High Priest Group leadership to effectively manage home teaching.

We've been told that the situation is being reviewed but we haven't been told when any changes will be make, what changes will be made or even if any changes will be made. For now we just have to wait and see and deal with the system as it is.

We have just discovered this problem in our ward. There are circumstances where the household generic assignment does not match with how the Bishop has asked the assignments to be done. This should be addressed asap!

It will be addressed according to the priorities set by the Priesthood Department.

Is there any further word on when this will be done? We have run into the same issue in our ward.

Nothing has been announced about when or if anything will be changed. For now, we all have to make do with how it is currently working.

Hi, I just came across this for the first time tonight as I was trying to reassign some folks to the other quorum. Our Bishop has asked our HP Quorum also to reassign some to EQ. Any progress? Thanks for all you do!

No one here at the Forum programs the website. So there is nothing we can do about the situation. It is entirely up to the Church developers to make any changes based on direction they receive from their priesthood leaders.

So, until there is a change, rather than the sending group or quorum trying to reassign the family to the other, the procedure is for the receiving group or quorum to assign the families to a home teaching companionship. Although the names are not in the drop down box for selection, they can be typed into the field and will be assigned to the companionship as requested.

Teachers from either quorum can be assigned to a family, but you can't assign an "unassigned" family to a quorum. So the list of unassigned is what it is and can't be changed. But that doesn't stop you from assigning teachers from a different quorum.

If you go to Home Teaching Assignments and select High Priests in the pull down menu in the upper left, you will see all the households assigned to the High Priests. Next to each name there will then be an "Edit" button you can click on. You can then re-assign them to another available quorum.

I think we are doing this task OK. I'm hometeaching, click on "members." After the list generates, there is a place on the left that says "move to". Select the families you want to move by checking the box to the left of their name. The click "move to" and choose the new quorum they are being assigned to.

When viewing the hometeaching list, just click the edit button and you can switch to EQ or HP
