MaMeeshkaMow Posted February 11, 2013 Report Posted February 11, 2013 (edited) So my wife and I are renewing our temple recommends. Well, we did the "bishop" part of it in December of 2011. We were of course planning to get our stake president interviews done, but then stake boundaries changed, building changed and we had tons of things going on. Fast forward to now. We want to renew them. Do we have to start all over again or can we just get the stake president one done? The time frame is 2 years now, instead of one, right? Worthiness is the same too....(except for temple attendance) Edited February 11, 2013 by MaMeeshkaMow Quote
EarlJibbs Posted February 11, 2013 Report Posted February 11, 2013 You will most likely have to start with your Bishop again. I think there is maybe a few month period inbetween them that they like to have everything finished up in. Good Luck! Quote
Guest Posted February 11, 2013 Report Posted February 11, 2013 We had our bishop interviews in October, never made it to the stake presidency's interview times, and by December the ward executive secretary called to schedule us appointments to start over because we waited too long. I think they said there's a 30-day requirement to finish with the stake pres. Quote

I think they said there's a 30-day requirement to finish with the stake pres.I don't think there's any official written policy (unless there's been something in the past 18 months). It was common for some of our members to go 2-3 months between the bishop and stake presidency interviews. I probably depends on the local leadership. Quote
dahlia Posted February 12, 2013 Report Posted February 12, 2013 I want to make sure I understand the process. I was interviewed by the bishop and stake president. I thought that was because I was getting my first recommend. So, is the normal process an interview with both, within a short time of each other? Quote
estradling75 Posted February 12, 2013 Report Posted February 12, 2013 After the first it doesn't have to be the Bishop... or the Stake President. It can be one of their councilors... But an interview with someone from both groups in a short time is the standard and normal process Quote
rameumptom Posted February 12, 2013 Report Posted February 12, 2013 Why ask us? Ask your bishop. Quote
