  1. Each meetinghouse in the Stake will select their own viewing time for Worldwide Leadership Training 2/10 based on direction from the Unit leaders.  Broadcast times are 8AM, 11AM, 2PM, 5PM and 8PM.
  2. For Ward Conferences with 2 units, the 'afternoon Ward' is requested to please prepare 2 dozen bag lunches for visiting Stake officers.
  3. All members of all Stake Auxiliary Presidencies (RS, YM, YW, SS, Primary) are available for Sacrament Meeting. Also the Stake Clerk and Secretary. Please do not hesitate to call on them.
  4. HC Speakers will sometime bring a 2nd speaker with them.  Please assure them sufficient speaking time on your program. For a High Councilor alone this should be an absolute minimum of 15 minutes, or at least 25 minutes if they bring a 2nd speaker with them
