Hi.

I had removed my Name in April 2017 from the Church Records and now want to come back to fellowship.

I will have an appointment with my Bihsop but was curious what the necessary steps are, because the search on the Forum delivers mostly outdated posts, and as I know since my resitgning the Handbook was made available Public and some designations and terms like "excommunication" and "limited-used temple recommends" has retired.

I had an little chat with my Bishop at an Ward Chistmas Party last week and he told that it isnt necessary to retake the Missionary Lessons.

So what would be the procedures for reasmission thorugh baptism after an Name Removal? 

I want to prepare myself for the Interview with the Bishop

 

Thanks a lot

Hi and welcome kousuke, glad to hear you're making it back!

Honestly, the purpose of meeting with the bishop is to learn what the necessary steps are.  There may be some steps individual to you, and random internet folk don't have a clue.  My advice is to be fully open and transparent with him.  He can better help, the more he knows about you.  It isn't like a job interview - looking good to convince someone to offer you salvation. 🙂

I don't know if the third hour community will consider this appropriate. If you were unaware, in the time since you resigned, the church made all of its handbooks publicly available (churchofjesuschrist.org or in the LDS gospel library app). The section specifically addressing readmission after resigning is section 32.16.2. There are not a lot of specifics given, but the process clearly goes through your bishop (or stake president). If it will help you feel more confident going into your meeting with the bishop, you can review that section of the CHI and see what kinds of things your bishop or stake president is advised to go over with you during the process of readmission.

Welcome!!!  A good friend of mine just completed his rebaptism and restoration of blessings.  They also delt with addictions.  Do not fear being open about your curcumstance - good Saints of G-d will be most willing to help.

If you were in full fellowship when your name was removed, it would seem a re-baptism would do the trick, assuming you are otherwise worthy.

Nope After my Name Removal I did not visited Church most of the time other than to Christmas Ward Parties or some ocassionally talks with the Missionaries
