Normandy Posted January 7, 2014 Report Share Posted January 7, 2014 When submitting a name should it be their full name or just first and last or just first? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
applepansy Posted January 7, 2014 Report Share Posted January 7, 2014 If I have a full name I give the full name, including middle or maiden. If I don't then I give the name I have. Heavenly Father knows his children. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Normandy Posted January 11, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 11, 2014 I forgot to say thank you for the reply! It was for a family member, so I know the full name. I just wasn't sure if I should give the full name or not. Thanks again for helping! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Palerider Posted January 11, 2014 Report Share Posted January 11, 2014 I only use the first and last....there have been times when I could not remember the first name and used Sister or Brother so and so Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Folk Prophet Posted January 15, 2014 Report Share Posted January 15, 2014 However, if you don't spell the name correctly then the prayers for them don't work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EmLove Posted January 5, 2016 Report Share Posted January 5, 2016 I only use the person's first and last name; Joe Bloggs. While we're on the subject of the Prayer Roll, there's something i've been wondering about... I know members can put names on the Roll, but what about non-members? If they have the number, are they allowed to call and add a name? Also, something's gotten me very curious... I read somewhere that if a person's name is put on the Prayer Roll at one Temple, it's as though it's been placed on the Prayer Roll at all the temples across the globe. I'm just wondering if that's true? If so, how does that work? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pam Posted January 5, 2016 Report Share Posted January 5, 2016 There was a comment by a General Authority that stated that we don't need to call multiple temples to put a name on a prayer roll. I'd have to find it. Calling just one temple is sufficient for the purpose intended. Backroads 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If a non-member has the number for the prayer roll of their nearest Temple, are they allowed to call and put names on? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 5, 2016 Report Share Posted January 5, 2016 They've never asked for my name or membership status when I call. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Backroads Posted January 6, 2016 Report Share Posted January 6, 2016 My aunt left the church decades ago. She went through her period of militant anti-Mormonism, now is far more peaceful. Her views are all inclusive and New Age-y... and yes, she says she occassionally calls the temple to put people on the prayer roll. Good karma and energy and all that, in her view.
