So im a missionary and i want my middle name to appear with my full name in the preach my gospel application. Other elders do have their middle names. In my church account i have edited what i can to include my middle name, but the personal information section still is just my first and last name. It's stayed the same.
How can i get my m8ddle name to appear in the personal info section amd to transfer to the preach my gospel app. my middle name is literally freedom and i wanna see that beautiful word everywhere haha.

I'm not certain this is the cause and solution in your case, but serving as an assistant ward clerk, membership, I'm aware that there is a 'preferred name' field in the membership record. Sometimes, that field gets set to just the first and last names, omitting the middle name. You might contact (or maybe have your parents contact) your ward clerk or membership clerk and request the preferred name field be adjusted or made blank (so the full name will take over). If your middle name is missing from the 'full name' field, your bishop might want to see documentation before changing that.

I have access to the app, and this is essentially how it works using the preferred name.
