introduction

significance OF THIS STUDY

since the earliest days of its existence the church of jesus christ of latterlatterdayday saints has kept records of its members and their church activity A loose system of minutes and oral reports in 1830 has evolved into a very sophisticated system of record keeping today from all over the world reports are sent to church headquarters where they are compiled and analyzed this thesis will be a history of formal reports from stakes and missions relative to membership and vital data as well as activity in priesthood and auxiliary organizations the writer became interested in the subject upon hearing about the recommendation of earl E olson church archivist for such a project the writer has received not only encouragement by the church historical decartidepartidepartmentnent but enthusiastic cooperation david mayfield a member of the church library staff has suggested a further study in the area of church reports this would include making a master file year by year of every report formforni the church has ever used z

this interest in reports althoaithoalthoughtighligh not new had been rekindled because of the increasedinc reaped emphasis placed on individual activity in the church in the past decade reports are described

iti1 as alive and vibrant becaubebaubecausee they measure the living

pulse of todaytodays activities they are a reflection of the quality and quantity of church participation they provide valuable feedback to church officials and in retrospect reveal longrangelong range trends

SCOPE AND delimitations

the earliest reports of activity and enrollment in church programs were given in the ward and stake histories or in personal correspondence1 between local leaders and church headquarters this study is limited to information contained on printed forms that are available inI1 n the church historical department and were used church wide time did not allow the author to look at every one of the hundreds of thousands of reports on file in the church archives this thesis is based on only a sample of each folfoiforbformM usually every fifth year financial reports of organizations and separate individuals personal confidential matters and minutes of meetingsn will not be included

METHODS OF PROCEDURE AND SOURCES USED

the importance of record keeping as revealed in holy writ will first be considered as a foundation for the future chapters then a systematic analysis of statistical membership priesthood auxiliary and correlated reports will follow the reports for each chapter or section will be arranged in chronological order with emphasis on the major reports the thesis analyzes information sent inbyin by wards large local congregations and stakesdiocese dioceselikelike ecclesiastical units composed of several wards similar reports from branches smaller local congregations and missions administrative units in areas of more limited and scattered population were examined by the author and found to be almost identical

most of the reports in the thesis used the same reporting channel the ward branch clerk or secretary compiled the information from his unit at the end of the reporting period he then forwarded it to his counterpart at the stake mission level when the stake clerk had received and compiled all the data from 4 the units in his stake he then sent his compilation and the ward reports to the proper priesthood or auxiliary agency on the general church level these general agencies would then examine and analyze the data by comparing the information with previous years they could determine significant church trends the primary sources whichwhichawhichh haveave been studied in this research are the official reports of the church located in the archives of the church historical department and auxiliary offices board minutes personal interviews and some secondary sources provide important background information I1

scriptural EVIDENCE ON THE DOCTRINE OF RECORD KEEPING

from the earliest days of its existence the church of jesus christ of latterlatterdayday saints has called secretaries historians clerks and recorders to serve in all its stakes bardslwardslwards missions and branches these people have written and compiled numerous records in the pastpa t century and a half the church has accumulated one of the largest religious manuscript libraries in existence I1 it has tried to maintain accurate and complete records of events involving the entire organization and events involving each individual member today the church has one of the most sophisticated and organized systems of recordrecordkeepingkeeping and reporting of any similar organization in the world the question arises why are the latterlatterdayday saints such a 11recorecordrd keeping people n the purpose of this chapter is to answer that question using the revealed word of god as found in the holy scriptures

importance of records and record keeping in the church of jesus christ 11 the improvementimprovement era LIX january 1956 49 see appendix B

5 ANCIENT scriptural RECORDS records kekeptheptt from the bebeginninginning from the beginning the scriptures have emphasized the need for record keeping in the days of adam and his immediate posterity n a book of rernembraremembrancence wawass kept in the which was recorded a genealogy of the children of god and 2Z this wawass in the boolbooiboglbogi of the generation of adam 11 the above scripture indicates that adam and his immediate posterity kept a record of their familyfaintly which would also represent the record of the people of godsgod church on the earth at that time Abraabrahamharnhann who wrote the oldest records that are available today stated but the records of the fathers the lord god preserved in mine own hands have I1 kept even unto this day and I1 shall endeavor to write some of these things upon this record for the benefit of my posterity that shall come after I1 G 1 3 1 me P ofgpof P I1 ababrahamraham 131 from this scripture it is apparent that abraham had access to records kept by writers earlier than himself perhaps one of these writers was enoch the great

prophet who walked with god he was commanded to keep a book

of remembranceremembrancesremembrance11 which he said was written among us according to the patternpatte rn given by the fingeaingefingerr of god 11 P of GPG P moses 646

moses who came after abraham but recorded much of the same material did not have access to the writings of previous

prophets therefore he was erivprivilegedpriv L lebedleged to see in vision a pano- rama of earths history from this eye witwitnesswitnessifnessif experience moses was able to record accurately the things that he wrote that his record came as a direct result of a divine commandment is attested by the following scriptures

and now moses my son I1 will speak unto thee concerning this earth upon which thou standeststanstandfestdest and thou shaltshallshait write the things which I1 shall speak P of GPG P moses 1- 140040

the lord spake unto moses saying behold I1 reveal unto you concerning this heaven and this earth write the words which I1 speak P of GPG P moses 21 moses1mosesmosess record was vital to the people of israel per- iodically the record was brought forth and read to the people

nehemiah 319318 191 9 it was also used as a textbook in teaching children to read and write P of GGPP moses 66 the book of mormon indicates that the writings of moses were so important that when the prophet lehi left jerusalem with his family the lord commanded him to send his sons back into

the city to obtain this record1110 cord which was written on plates of brass 8 the prophet nephi pointed out thatchat it was the wisdom of god that 12 3 these plates should be preserved 11 after they had been secured so that his nation woaldwould not dwindle and perish in unbelief lehi commented about the contents of the plates and he beheld that they did contain the five books of moses and also a record of the jews from the beginning and also the prophecies of the holy prophets especially jere- miah and also a genealogy of his fathers B of M I1 nephi 5111451114.5115 11 14

after traveling for some distandistancecejceP nephi was commanded by the lord to make two sets of metal plates to record his familyfamilys activities one set was for a religious history and the other set was for a secular history B of M I1 ne 93593 5 these plates were handed down from generation to generation by the prophet scribes one of the best examples in all the scriptures of the importance of accurate recordkeepingrecord keeping is recorded by another man named nephi the incident occurred daringdarlngduring the lordlords visit to the americas and it shows that the savior is keenly aware of the records that were being kept in his church the lord called nephi to him and said bring forth the record which ye have kept and when nephi had broubroughtahtght forth the records to Is the lord cast his

eyes upon them and said I1 commanded mynay servant samuel that he should testify unto this people was it not so and his disciples answered him and said yea lord 0 and jesus said unto them how be it that ye have not written this thing and it camecarne to pass that nephi remembered thathatt this thing had not been written and it came to pass that jesus commanded that it should be written therefore it was written cordinaccordiaaccordinaccordingac r as he commanded B of M iliIII111 nephi 23713237 13

thus the scriptures indicate that the lord Wantedwanted his people in all parts of the world to keep written recornecorrecordsilsgis to emphasize this idea he said

for I1 command all men both in the east and in the west and in the north and in the south and iinn the I1slandsblandsislands of the sea that they shall write the words which I1 shall speak unto them for out of the books which shallshalishailshadishaji be written I1 will judge the world every man according to their works according to that which is written for I1 shall speak unto the jews and they shall write it and I1 shall also speak unto the ephitesnepliitesN echitesephites and they shall write it and I1 shall alsospeakalsoaiso speak untolantotanto the other tribes of the house of israel which I1 have led away and they shall write it and I1 shall also spealspeak unto allaliail nations of the earth and they shall write it B of M II11 nephi 91112911291112291112.2911gli 12

the purposepurpoapo s e for keeheekeepingping these records the ancient records were kept for a variety of reasons abraham said that he kept his record for the benefit of those who would conconieconlecomeie after him moses kept his records because god commanded him to nephi stated that records were kept because it was thetlletile wisdom of the lord that their nation not dwindle and perish in unbelief 1 B of M I1 nephi 413 he later pointed out thatthai his purpose in writing as god concommandedimanded wastowas to 10 persuade men to gaingam a testimony of the gospel and come to christ

B of M I1 nephi 64 moroni the last writer in the book of mormon added a new dimension to the area of recordkeepingrecord keeping when he said that the names of church members were taken that they might be remembered and nourished by the good word of god B of M moroni 6464. to this christ added the thought that men would be judged according to the things that are written on the books of his kingdom

statistical REPORTS

in 18521852y just five years after the arrival of the latter day saints in the salt lake valley the wards and stakes of the church began reporting their activity to the presiding bishop on official forms these earliest formsfornis called stake quarterly reports ran until 1903 when they were incorporated into the

annual financial andstatisticaland statistical report

STAKE QUARTERLY REPORTS 185219031852 1903

the earliest known formal reports of the church were the stake quarterly reports see appendix E sent in quarterly semisemiannuallyannually and anduaannuaannuallyilyliy11y they stressed numbers rather than activity and were possibly not issued every year before 1877

18521864185218 521852 186418 64 from this thirteen year period only reports of the following nine years are on file in the church historical1 department

185218571852 1857 10 185918590 1860 1864 it is also interesting to note that during this time except for a8541854 and 1855 the column headings

14 15 were not included on the printed form but were written in by hand these reports were compiled on a ward basis and then sent to the church recorder later to the presiding bishops office PBO who would make a recapitulation by stakes the recapitulation would include totals for each ward in a stake and then the stake total at the bottombottorn with only seven stakes in the church and one short report being sent in by the wards in those seven stakes there was not a great deal of paperwork required to keep the churchchurchs statistics during this period the following information was called for on these reports the years in parenthesis indicate when that particular item was added

1 number of priesthood holders by quorum and totaled

2 number of members not ordained

3 total of numbers I11 and 2 4 persons over eight years of age not baptized

5 children under eight years of age 6 total not baptized 7 total persons in ward

8 number of persons on missions

9 baptized baptizedrebaptizerrebaptizedRe births deaths excommunicated in last six months 16

10 males nofbofnot ordained 1856

186518761865 1876

there are no stake or ward quarterly reports on file in the church historical department during these years there are two obvious explanations for this first it is possible that no reports were required by the hurchchurchC during those years second the reports could have been sent in and then misplaced the latter choice seems to be the most likely

187719031877 1903

in 1877 the report was given its permanent name statistical report of the ward or stake see appendix E every year of this period is represented in the files of the historical department of the church theibefhe information called for was basically the samesayne with only three minor changes of forbatformat in 1877 1880 and 1897 the seventeen years from 1880 to 1896 when this report had the same exact format without any changes is the longest such time period in the history of church

reports in 1897 the format of the ward statistical report was changed significantly and became the forerunner of later reports the following information was requested from 187719031877 1903

FORM J ANNUAL FINANCIAL AND statistical REPORTS 190419381904 1938

prior to 1904 there were two annual reports that were sent into the PBO the statistical report above and a financial and IHistoricalhistorical1111 report in 1903 the two were combined see appendix E the financial reportreport included a detailed accounting for all monies received and disbursed from tithing fast offeringsoffe rings building maintenance and welfare contributions the historical report was a list of ward officers and a brief statenstatementlenttent of important ward events this thesis will discuss 18

only the statistical elements of this newly enlarged report

in 1904 J the statistical report remained the same as in previous years with the addition of a section for auxiliary enrollment

in 1910 the report expanded in several ways most of the information called for was broken down by priesthood quorumsquorums member male and female and children male and female within the stake or missionitwasetwas it was totaled for the year with a comparison to the previous year or years increasing emphasis was also placed on the level of activity rather than just on the total numbers as on earlier reports toward the end of the report which was twenty to thirty pages long a recapitulation of most of the information was given by wards with a stake total at the bottom this was by far the longest and most complicated report that the church ever used it was not issued to stakes and wards after 1938 compcomparativerativedative totals the following information on the reports included com- pariparisonssons with previous years A stake meetings the number of

MISSION ANNUAL REPORT 191019511910 1951

the annual report of missions began in 1910 and continued until 1951 it was not as detailed as the stake report and contained some information that was peculiar to missionary work and therefore not on the stake report the first report was issued in 1910 and was concerned with enrollment and increase and decrease of membership this was broken down by priesthood quorum member and children with a comparison to the previous year the second page had to do with missionary work such as number of conversions tracts distributed cottage meetings held etc it also listed the number of missionaries in the mission in later years it included some vital statistatis-s tics which were compiled from form 42fp the mission equivalent to form E the final year of this report was 1951

this report was used in conjunction with the quarterly report above it contained the same basic information see appendix E

conclusion

the church has called for statistical reports from wards and stakes since 1852 the earliest ones emphasized the number of ordinances performed and persons enrolled then around the turn of the twentieth century the forms stressed attendance as well as the status of the organization then a shift in emphasis began in the 1960s1960 the last four reports in this chapter were fore-

runners of the correlated reporting system see chapter 7 which was designed to stress the activity of individuals begun in 1967 this correlated system replaced these statistical reports chapter 4

CHURCH membership RECORDS AND REPORTS

A responsibility of the church of jesus christ of latter

n dayclay saints is to prepare its members for 9 immortality and eternal life ll11 P ofgpof G P moses 139139. this goal has prompted a great concern in the church for the status of each individual As stated moroni taught that a record should be kept that all members might be remembered and nourished by the good word of god to keep them in the right way n B of

M moronimo r 0ni 64 this chapter will consider two areas first the official records listing who the members were and second reports of significant changes in the status of these members

1 183018771830 1877 there was no standardized format for the records of members consequently a loose system of record keeping developed information was writtenwrlitten on any type of paper that was

38 39 available and then in most cases compiled in notebooks or some other kind of container with no discipline attached to the system many of these early records were lost destroyed or stolen thithlthiss has left very few membership records fortheforfon the first twenty years of the churchschurches existence the bulk of information that is available for these two decades is recorded in historical records that were kept in minute books and memberbembersmembers s journals

in 1846 the council of the twelve apostles no doubt sensing the disorganized state of church records directed the church historian to issue a form to the bishops that their reports might be made uniformly president brigham young who was present at this meeting desired the bishops to report the organ- izatizationsionslons of their wards their business number of men women and children how many sick tithing paid etc with the totals

after 1877 1 riotnoticesices were issued intermittently from the general authorities giving specific instructions concerning types of books and forms to be used and information to be recorded some ward branch clerks did not conforaconfornconformi to the recommended instructions some may not have received the instructions or they received instructions some time after they were to become effective the books and forms that werewe re recommended were not printed by one publishing company nor distributed by the church frobfromfrornbrorn one distribution center the books and forms were printed locally resulting in slight var- locally55 iations from locality to locality 9 16

1 increase the accuracy of the information recorded on

2 decrease the timeneededtime needed to transfer the MIRs from place to place

3 improve the efficiency of reporting membership information

4 make possible the collection of meaningful statistics for church leaders 08

FORM E

A very important phase of the churchschurches membership record program is in getting the necessary information concerning changes in the status of members into the PBOs master file one important channel for this frobfrom stakes and wards has been the annual form E report see appendix F introduced in 1907 A corresponding report form 42fp4zepuzep recorded similar data from missions and branches

bibid8ibidbid 48

still in use in the 1970s1970 the form E was an annual compilation of important data about the members of the church As each event occurred it was recorded by the ward clerk on the form E at the end of the calendar year the clerk forwarded the form E to the stake clerk who compiled a summary of all the statistics in the stake he then sent the summary and the ward form Es to the PBO the following information was contained on the report the numbers in parenthesis indicate when that particular information was added

since the churchs organization in 1830 records have been kept that have sought to list the names of church members and give an accounting of their faith and works As the church expanded in membership better and more efficient means of record keeping were developed in 1941 a loose leaf system replaced the membership books and in 1973 a computer program was introduced to further enhance church record keeping procedures A large master file of all church members is in the possession of the presiding bishopbishops office in salt lake city the basic method for reporting membership information to the PBO is the annual form E report A new computerized system of record keeping will do away with form E and will improve thetiietaaltzal1 in current methods for compiling data with every technological advancement that man makes the church will have a new idea available to add to its continually progressing record keeping systems chactechaptechapterr 5

priesthood REPORTS

to accomplish the goals of the church two types of organization have been established first priesthood quorumsquorums these are groups of men who hold a given priesthood office the organization and basic purposes of these quorums and offices were largely set forth n in sections 20 and 107 of the dacd&c second is auxiliary organizations they will be discussed in chapter 6 two orders of priesthood are spoken of in the scriptures first is the melchizedek or higher priesthoodpriesthood11 for worthy adult male members of the church over the age of 18 second is the aaronic priesthood for worthy young men in the church between the ages of 12 and 18 dacd&c 20 and 107 since the priesthood is the basic organization of the church many of the reports discussed in other chapters will contain data that applies to the priesthood this chapter will analyze only those reports or major sections of reports that deal specifically with the

AUXILIARY REPORTS

in the church there have been the following auxiliary organizations

1 relief society

2 sunday school

3 young womenwomens mutual improvement association

YWMIA

4 young menmens mutual improvement association

conclusion

the earliest formal organizational reports in the church were auxiliary reports they have all stressed the same basic information as the priesthood reports iei e enrollment attendance and activity some auxiliary data was included on the statistical reports see chapter 3 the aaronic priesthood reports contained information on sunday school and YMMIA attendance in 1967 auxiliary information was included on the correlated

report see chapter 7 by 1973 these organizations were no longer issuing their own statistical reports chactechaptechapterr 7

correlated REPORTS

in the early 1960s after years of planning and elpeexperi-expe ri menting the church initiated a program of priesthood correlation in describing its advent president marion G romney said church correlation did not spring forth minervalikeminerva like in the mid1960mid 1960s1960 it was born of necessity and after a long history of trial and error its objective as I1 understand it is to so relate church agencies priesthood and auxiliary that all members of the church will be through them taught the gospel both activities and theology in the most effective and harmonious manner

coordinating the priesthood and auxiliary courses of study was the first of many steps toward the total correlation of all church activities under the direction of the priesthood in 1967 the correlation program carried over into church reports with the introduction of the correlated report the idea behind this new system was to put all information statistical priesthood and auxiliary onto one report at the time this went into effect the church published the following explanation

effective september 1 1967 a correlated reporting system will be implemented for reporting priesthood and auxiliary activities reports from each group in the ward will be given to the ward clerkclerksclerke he will assemble them into a unified correlated report which after being approved by the bishop wwillillliii be forwarded to the stake the stake clerk will then prepare a stake report to be approved by the stake president 2 it is the first tibtimtibetimetheretime thereethere has been a unified system of reporting throughout the church this new system if properly followed will give important and to general information statistics authorities stake0 and mission headquarters in prompt and orderly fashion 3 the value of this new report was threefoldthree fold first it coordinated all reports under the direction of the ward and stake clerks second it established lines of communication through not around the priesthood leaders of the church third it provided church leaders with a set of meaningful statistics to ususee in evaluating the progress of the organizations under their direction

in the 1972731972 73 correlated year the MIA program was dropped as an auxiliary and was incorporated directly into the aaronic priesthood program at that same time the responsibility for working with adult bearers of the aaronic priesthood was given to the elders quorum where they became known as prospective elderseiderselders11 these changes had a direct affect on the correlated report the YMMIA page was combined with the aaronic priesthood page and the aaronic priesthoodadultpriesthood adult information became part of the melchizedek priesthood page the deletion of these two areas cut the report to nine pages the format for the entire report was altered but the information called for remained basically the same

SUMMARY

i in the first four decades 0ofI1 the churchs existenceex I1 stence the reporting systems were informal important data about stakes and wards were submitted to church headquarters orally or as part of the unitsunites annual history from time to time specific items were requested and returned in personal correspondence between general church authorities and local leaders after the arrival of the latterlatterdayday saints in utah a columned form with handwrittenhandwrittendw ritten adingsakingsheadingshe was used to report the number of persons enrolled in the various priesthood quorums and the number of specific ordinances performed the history of official printed report forms may be divided into four periods

1877latter1877 latteriatter nineteenth centarycentury the periodpe riodbiod from 1867 to 1878 was full of important organizational developments in the church in december 1867 the relief society whose meetings were held at best only irreg- ularly in utah was organized on a churchwidechurch wide scale from then until 1878 the other four priesthood auxiliaries were organized or reorganizereorganizedd throughout the church

119 120

in 1877 great effort was taken to complete the local ecclesiastical organizations on july 11 of that year the first presidency of the church issued a circular letter that has been described as n one of the most important documents in mormon history it marked the turning point in the organizational patterns of the church lt until this time many of the stakes were presided over by members of the council of the twetwelvelveive apostles these general authorities were released in 1877 and replaced by local leaders wards and priesthood quorums were also reorganized from this time on there was only one high priests quorum per stake quarterly conferences were reemreemphapha sized young men began to receive regular ordinations to the aaronic priesthood and children received the sacrament in sunday school 2 thus these organizational changes affected all age levels of church membership they signalledsignal led the end of the pioneer era and the beginning of a more established period in the church at this time reports also entered their first formal period in 1872 the first auxiliary reports were issued by the sunday school the year 1877 is of prime importance to the

bibid3ibid 122 early twentieth century

As the twentieth century dawned there was great opti- mism in the church for a bright future during the first decade ofbf the century there was expanded interest in church activity for example when joseph F smith became president of the church he also assumed the role of general superintendent of the sunday school and young menmens mutual improvement association with this move the auxiliaries began to stress activity formal class instruction was begun in the relief society the MIA and sunday school separated the various age groups into graded classes for instruction parents class was added to the sunday school cur- riculumriculum the church made notable progress during this time and the auxiliaries kept up with this progressive era this was also a period of reemphasizing the work of the priesthood the first presidency urged local leaders to hold priesthood meeting on a weekly basis uniform courses of study were added to the melchizedek priesthood program ordination to the various offices in the aaronic priesthood started to take place at specific ages this decade of progress in church programs was also reflected in the reports of the period in march of 1900 a smaller size membership book was adopted for general use throughout the church this short form replaced the long book which had been bulky and difficult to handle 123 A new statistical report form J was introduced along with form E the latter stressed changes in the status of individual church members such as births marriages ordinations etc the YWMIA and the YMMIA issued their first annual reports during this period and the primary expanded the number of items on its form during this time the reports reflected the change in emphasis not only did the church want to account for each of its members but also for the degree of activity exhibited by them attendance began to be stressed with the organizational changes that took place in this decade a renewed emphasis was placed on development of local stakes wards and quorumsquorums this was also reflected in the reports since much of the data required on the forms was to reveal the status of organizations these trends in reporting procedures continued to the mimid1960midd 19601960s midtwentiethmidmid twentiethtwentiswenti e th centuryC entuantu ry

in the period just following world war I1 there was a relocation of population in america urban areas rapidly increased while ruralrura 1 areas saw a sharp decline the church was also affected by this movement in the 192019201s and 19301930s there was a dispersion of the latterlatterdayday saints from utah idaho and arizona into other regions where new job opportunities awaitedawaitelaltel 124 them the great depression of the 1930s caused an increase in mormon migration especially to california by 1940 there were over twenty stakes outside the intermountain region this dispersion to outlying areas created an increased need for the church to more thoroughly supervise the local units to facilitate this in 1935 the first presidency and the quorum of the twelve were released as leaders of the auxiliaries six years later assistants to the twelve were called expanding the number of general authorities during this period church reports began to reflect the need for more thorough local supervision the annual form J statistical report was discontinued and a new monthly report was introduced the presiding bishops office also issued a new monthly aaronic priesthood form A partial shift from annual to monthly reports filled the churchchurchs needs at that time

the year 1941 also saw the introduction of a record of membership format that was used for over thirty years when a member changed residence these 812812118 121211 x 5 forms were forwarded to his new ward helping to better keep track of members involved in the population dispersion laterlatertwentiethtwentieth ceniaceneacenturacentury in the 1960s and early 1970s there was a shift in the moral tone of the united states wide scale immorality and 125 social unrest created a need for family unity as never felt before during this time the church after years of trial and error embarked on a program to correlate all church activity under the direction of the priesthood the correlation program stressed the need for solidarity in the home with the father as the priesthood bearer at the head of the family the program was designed to focus attention on the individual church member with the old moral and social structures in the world crumbling around him the individual member needed to look to the church for strength as never before

in 1967 the priesthood and auxiliary information was brought togethertogether into one report called the correlated reporting system it was designed to aid leaders of the church at each level to measure the progress and activity of those under their direction the report at first still stressed the status of organizations instead of individuals then in 1973 the report was cut to three pages at the stake level with the focus squarely on the needs of individual church members

in 1972 a computerized record system replaced the 812812118 121211 x 5511 membership cards this new system was designed to increase the accuracy of the membership data and the efficiency with which it was reported if used properly it would decrease the thtimene needed to transfer the information ffromrobrom place to place 126 as a member changed his place of residence it also made pos sible a collection of meaningful statistics for church leaders 4 like the correlated report this automated membership systemsystem1111 waswa s designed to better focus attention on each person in the church

FINDINGS

from the data gathered in this study the following findings were obtained

1 the holy scriptures counsel the church to keep records of its members and their activity 2 the earliest church reports dealt with enrollment and vital data

3 around the turn of the twentieth century these reports also began to stress attendance and organizational status

4 around 1940 the church began calling for reports more frequently than once a year

5 in the 1960 s and 19701970s all previous reports except the form E were incorporated into the correlated reporting system

6 in the 19701970s the formalforifortnalnai reporting system of the

ajohn4johnjohn H vandenberg automated membership system introduction booklet salt lake city the church of jesus christ of latterlatterdayday saints 1972 p 3 127 church shifted its emphasis to the activity of the individual member

7 church reports are a reflection of the changes of emphasis in church programs and organizations

conclusions

from the data gathered in this study the following con- clusionsclusions are presented

1 the church urges accuracy from local units of organization to keep accurate records of members

2 the church strives to find better more efficient and less time consuming means of reporting data

3 the church is constantly upgrading the quality of its reports and their usefulness for church leaders

USEFUL statistics

prior to the initiation of the correlated report the level of church activity was measured on individualonindividualunindividual priesthood and aauxiliaryuxiauxiiliarybiliary reports if a researcher wished to trace the activity of female members he could consult relief society reports youth activity was measured by aaronic priesthood MIA and sunday school reports when done by age groups the correlated form brought all the information about an age level to one section of the same report this made compiling useful activity statistics 128 much easier comparing useful statistics allows the reader to measure church trends to aid in this process the author has compiled a chart of the location of important data prior to the correlated report it contains examples of important statistics for measuri-measur ng church progress and what forms they were reported on see appendix D

recommendations FOR FUTURE STUDY

this thesis has opened the way for future study in many areas As stated in the introduction david mayfield of the church library staff has suggested making a master file of every report the church has ever used this would enable the student to see exactly when changes were made in the reports students interested in church programs as well as in sociology economics family relations etc could examine the actual statistics and measure the long range growth patterns of activity one area not covered by the thesis is financial reports the author believes that a full thesis could be written on this subject another thesis could be done on proselyting activities of 129 fulltimefull time missionaries as reflected in their reports

reports prior to the use of official printed forms is another area open for study as is minutes of meetings and other nonformnon form reports the writer would also strongly recommend that the church historical department require a higher quality of work from its microfilmmicrofilmermicrofilmersersenss many reports even recent ones are extremely difficult to read serious consideration should be given to redoingre doing much of the micromicrofilmingfilming the formal reporting system of the church of jesus christ of latterlatterdayday saints provides a goldminegold mine of information for researchers bibliography

136 HOW TO USE RECORDS AND REPORTS

one definition of the word rerecordcord reads to put in some permanent form keep for remembrance 11 another to set down in writing so as to keep for future use 11 the messages of the prophets remind us that records among godsgod people havetwohave two primary purposes

1 to help people develop spiritually and progress toward immortality and a glorious eternal life

2 to serve as instruments in the hands of selected servants of god in judging people under their jurisdiction some of the greatest of the prophets were authors and keepers of the records including mosesmuses samuel isaiah nephi mormon moroni john and paul records through the ages have been lasting communication lines between the lordlords prophets and his people through records people have been lifted to a greater knowledge of the lord they have learned his divine will and his plan and guide- posts for journeying on the joyful path that leads back into his presence it is important to stress this matter of communication with good twowaytwo way channels of communication open and functioning weaknesses may be avoided and strong points forti- fied but records are noreworemoreboremore than lines for lifting us heavenward that brings us to their second primary purpose to serve as instruments in the hands of selected servants of god in judging people under their jurisdiction

to nephi the lord spoke for I1 command all men that they shall write the words which I1 speak unto them for out of the books which shall be written I1 will judge the world every man according to their works according to that which is written 11 2 ne 2911 in this dispensation the lord has said of the role of

137 138

records in judging t and another book was opened which was the book of life but the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books according to their works and the book which was the book of life is the record which is kept in heaven 1 dacd&c 1287 thus records hhaveave been important with gods people through the ages and are important today they are vital to all who have positions of leadership in the church to help people in their quest toward eternal life and to assist in the judgment and judging in the kingdom it must always be remembered that records have never been the goal nor the end product in the church either ancient or restored rather they have served as tools in the buildingupbuildingup of individuals and thereby the buildingupbuildingup of the kingdom of god

records are passive reports are or should be J alive and vibrant note one of the definitions of a report oanuanan account of something seen heard read done or consideredconsidered notice that the verbs are all action words another definition reads an account officially expressed generally in writing n

reports need to be complete accurate legible neat and in on time and they should provide information upon which valid decisions can be made these would include copies of notes minutes statistical and other reports that are prepared by the clerks and secretaries and distributed to the administrative officers for study and consideration reports should contain information on factors that will lead to action on the part of the leaders receiving them A report should be in the best possible form for the presentation of the subject matter

reports are to be submitted to and used by the administrative officers of the wards and branches the stakes and missions throughout the church it is the responsibility of these leaders to see that the reports are correctly completed

it is also the responsibility of the presiding authority in every case to select and train those who will act on the reports as well as those who will prepare them A strong leader knows that if he develops his associates he will become even stronger even greater attention will be given by the general 139 authorities to the selection of stake administrative officers and clerks as they are chosen sustained and set apart the respon- ssibilitysibisibli lity each has toward the reports will be stressed at the time of the call A good leader inspires other men and women with confidence in him a great leader inspiresinspires them with confidence in themselves after proper and prayerful selection the chosen stake clerks will train their assistants and they together will train the secretaries to the priesthood quorums and auxiliaries as well as the ward clerks and their assistants the ward clerks in turn will train their assistants and the secretaries to the aaronic priesthood quorums and the secretarisecretariessecresecretarytaritarl e s to the ward auxiliaries the better informed these important workers are the better jobs they will be able to perform and time spent in training these people in the proper functioning of their work will be rewarded by better reports that will enable the administrative officers to do a better job t good reports spotlight the weak areas requiring attention and also point up the areas of strength the leader can detect whether a unit is progressing or retrogressretrogressinging whether the people under his jurisdiction are developing spirituality or decildeclin-1 ing in spirituality accurate reports reveal the direction in which the organization is going and emphasis should be placed constantly on the correct preparation of the reports and to assure that reports are submitted on or before the due date reports should be reviewed carefully and comments made in the spaspacece provided this is the best evidence that the report has been studied and hopefully used an able leader uses reports as a mariner uses his com- pass to check the course and to learn the direction in which he is traveling good reports can be the eyes of the administrators in watching the progress on the various church fronts that are his resrespensresponsresponsibilitypons ibilityibiiblabilitylity the effective leader will study and review reports faithfully As he studies good reports he will see the figures and statistics come alive and instead of numbers he may see that jack jones has not been graduatedfromgraduated from primary as a second class scout that he hasnt been ordained to the aaronic priesthood nor has he started to attend MIA meetings

A welladvisedwelweiwellweilweli advised leader can advise his flock well he can be specific in complimenting meritorious accomplishments and give pinpoint encouragement in instances where improvement can be attained or where more appropriate action is required 140

local leaders should study the reports diligently they should have the facts and figures at all times it may be well to remembrememberer the adage leadership filters down from the top it doesnt bubble up from the bottom 11 with good records and reports a leader can evaluatehisevaluate his own performance he can compare the performanceerformanceperformance of his people now in contrast to a month ago a year agogo or even two years ago orlingerorlongeror longer someone has said notnothinging is good or bad except by comparison 11 it is better to be ones own severest critic and to make comparisons with himself and hish s standards rather than with others here are some areas of ccomparisonmdarisondarlson the gospelgos deldei teaches eternal progression what progress are the church members under my jurisdiction making what percentage of them are attending sacrament meeting now compared with a month ago A year ago two years ago what percentage of adult members are qualifying for temple recommends what percentage of mar- riagesbiages are being performed in the temple in which direction are we moving in the percentage of our youth attending seminary or institutes these are merely examples the properly prepared reports will reveal many other items of importance statistical reports represent the actions of individuals and we should ever be mindful that what matters is our concern with the child of god within our area of responsibility and not the figure that represents him on the report there are other important considerations in the lives of individuals that concern the leader that are not reflected in the records or reports but records and reports are yardsticks we need to use continually for measuring performance

A leader who leads without using his records and reports is like a pilopilot flying without instruments he should question the trends shown in the reports and ask why then helieilelle can make the necessary moves to strengthen the situation or situations

an effective and dedicated leader will set goals for himself once he determines through a study of the reports where his organization has been going in certain areas of performance he can weigh where he wants to go in helping people grow spiritually

through the use of written reports the leader can review on a monthtomonthtomonthmonth to month basis the big picture of the entire program of the church as it seeks to exalt the individual records and 141

reports help the wise leader to keep the program in proper balance and relationship

in the divine plan of things the individual is supreme the programprogramss of the church and the reports of their functioning are aimed to help each member of the church enjoy a more meaningful life here and hereafter this will be accomplished as we improve our lines of communications a wellinformedwell informed worker is a more effective worker reports of the various activities of the church come together at the intersection of the bishopbishops desk under priesthood correlation the bishop becomes more interested in individuals than in programs even though the church programs are vitally necessary he will be more interested in filling their needs and in helping them move heavenward than in turning in a favorable statistical report he will review the reports in terms

0of1 f what the activities in his ward are doing toward uplifting individuals he will study the figures as symbols of souls he will probe beyond those sybsymsymbolsbolsois and into the lives of the people he has been called to lead good reports will follow good activity good reports will reflect the performance of dedicated members A wise bishop will use reports for guidance in his oral evaluations with priesthood leaders he will use reports for his discussions at ward executive and council meetings he will use the records to inquire about specific fabiifamiliesfamil lesp both the active and the inactive he will use the figures to help guide him and his associates in making the moves necessary for building souls the stake president similarly will want to probe with his bishops and pripriesthoodesthoodestwood leaders beyond the reports he will want to know how each bishop is meeting the responsibility of planning for and meeting the needs of the people in his ward regional representatives of the twelve will likewise inquire how a stake president is working with his bishops in serving his people similarly general authorities as they meet with regional representatives of the twelve and stake presidents will want to leamlearn how programs are helping people but in all this effort to build souls the time the talent and the energies of the leader will be far more productive if he studies interprets and wisely uses reports these records will be more useful to him if they are accurate complete and punc- tual the able leader will therefore choose capable record 142 keepers he will see that they are trained and that they know their duty fully indeed the first purpose of records and reports is to help every man and woman to grow through knowing jesus the christ and in following his plan toward perfection and eternal life moroni one of the great recorders in the cause of the lord gave this counsel for all of us as he sealed up his record yeaea come unto christ and be perfected in him and deny yourselves of all ungodliness and if ye shall deny yourselves of all ungodliness and love god with all your might mind and strength then is his grace sufficient for you that by his grace ye 11 maybemay be perfect in christ 10 moro 10321032.

143 importance OF RECORDS AND RECORD KEEPING IN

THE CHURCH OF JESUS CHRIST

importance OF KEEPING RECORDS first gods commandments on record keeping a church records to be lse122keptt As a part of the restoration of the gospel and the establishing of the church and kingdom of god upon the earth in the latter days joseph smith received several revelations from the savior regarding record keeping while the six young men were in session on april 6 1830 organizing the church of jesus christ in harmony with divine instructions the prophet joseph smith received a revelation part of which statestatess behold there shall be a record kept among you and in it thou shalt be called a seer a translator a prophet an apostle of jesus christ an elder of the church through the will of god the father and the grace of your lord jesus christ dacd&c 211 b church historians and recorders the first church historian and recorder in this dispensation was oliver cowdery he served until march 8 1831 when he was replaced by john whitmer who received that appointappointmenappointmentbenment through special revelation from the lord we read in section fortysevenforty seven of the doctrine and covenants

behold it is expedient in me that my servant john should write and keep a regular history and assist you my servent joseph in transcribing all things which shall be given you until he is called to further duties and again I1 say unto you that it shall be appointed unto him to keep the church record and history continually for oliver cowdery I1 have appointed to another office wherefore it shall be given him inasmuch as he is faithful by the comforter to write these things even so 144 145 amen 11 dacd&cd&c47471 3434.3 4 c records of all church members to be kept

during the month of april 1830 the same month that the church was organized joseph smith received a revelation regarding the keeping of a record of all church members and a record of transfers from branches or wards to other branches or wards dacd&c 20020828420828828484284 in the same revelation instructions were given0 regarding taking the names from the general church record of people who had been expelled or excommunicated from the church d records of all that transpires in zion to be kept

on 27p november 27 1832 J still another revelation on record keeping was given by the lord through the prophet to members of the church this revelation dealt with a number of items in the newly founded kingdom to quote it is the duty of the lordlords clerk whom he has appointed to keep a history and a general church record of all things that transpire in zion andofandoeand of all those who consecrate properties and receive inheritances legally from the bishop and also their manner ollifeoflifeof lifeilfe their faith and works and also of the apostates whwho0 apostatize after receiving their inheritances 11 dacd&c 8512851 2 the revelation continues by discussing the genealogies which should be kept and the various church records and history of the church which should be written second joseph smiths viewviewpointseintsoints on thelmthe importanceortance of record keehlnkeepinkeepingg in the church a josephjo se h smithssmithes vieviewpointnt

on september 6 1842 the prophet joseph smith definitely pointed out that the records kept here on this earth would play a great part at the final judgment day when members of the church of jesus christ shall stand before the lord to account for their works and lives while in mortality the prophet was discussing revelation 2012 which states and I1 saw the dead small and great stand before god and the books were opened and another 146 book was open which is the book of life and the dead were judged out of these things which were written in the books according to their works 11

b josephjo s ej2h smith quoted

youou will discover in this quotation that the books were opened and another book was opened which was the book of life but the dead were judged out of those things whichwhich were written in the books according to their works consequently the books spoken of must be the books which contained the record of their works and refer to the records which are kept on the earth and the book which was the book of life is the record which is kept in heaven the principle agreeing precisely with the doctrine which is commanded you in the revelation contained in the letter which I1 wrote to you previous to my leaving my place that in all your recordings it may be recorded in heaven nownowwow the nature of this ordinance consists in the power of the priesthood by the revelation of jesus christ wherein it is granted that whatsoever you record on earth shall be recorded in heaven and whatsoever you do not record on earth shall not be recorded in heaven for out of the books shall your dead be judged according to their own works whether they themselves have attended to ordinances in their own propriapropariapria persona or by the means of their agents according to the ordinance which god has prepared for their salvation from before the foundationfotuidation of the world according to the records which they have kept concerning their deaddeadadead1 dacd&c 128781287128197897 8

record keeping is of vital importance in genealogical work the wonderful promise divgivengiven by malachi that elijah would come in the latter days and 9 turn the heart of the fathers to the children and the heart of the children to their fathers malachi 46461 could not be fulfilled without records and the diligent work of researchers in that field climaxed by temple work constitutes one of the major programs in the church of jesus christ all of these records are of vital concern to those who work in the temples for salvation for the dead as well as to the departed ones for whom the temple work is done

NEW correlated REPORTINGREPOKTING SYSTFSYSTEM4

ELDER BOYD K PACKER I1 have a very happy assignment to announce the conclusion ofot what I1 thinkchink might well be termed one of the most difficult oiof all taskscasks relating to correlation it has been eight years in preparationthepreparation the last five years of intensive activity as referred to this morning by president lee and we are announcing thatchatchac beginning september I1 191197313 the new system of correlated reports will be introindrointroducedduceddeuced churchwisechurchwideChurch wide it has been tested in many stakes and has since last septemberseptemoerSep temoer been in operation in all of the stakes outside of the united states and canada I1 might mention this there is a change in approach to reporting if souvouyou can understand this you will understand the basis of what we will be doing this system contemplates that we will report on the activity of individuals not on the status otof organizations that means it will be easier to find them it will be harder lorfortorfon them to get lostioselose now with thatchatchac being true even if we added to the reports it would be an improvement if we could get to where we are counting individuals and looking after them

recently a certified public accountant who is a stake clerk said with all my professional training I1 cannot do an adequate job of compiling the reports presently required in my stake in a 40hour40 hour week now in answer toco thatchatchacchad let me bring you up to date about eight years ago the reporting system was organized as the correlated reports then consisting of 11 pages two years ago it was reduced to 9 pages in the system that will be operative beginning september I1 a further reduction has taken place the ninepagenine page ward report which presently consists of 731 entries willwilt consist of one pageapage a reduction of eight paespages and of 245 entries the stake report liiiiililninene pages presently calling for 4904909 entries will be reduced to three pages of 1794 entries the 4909 entries accumulated takes something in excess of 8000 mathematical comput- ations each monthmonch in the stake 152

4573 2 on the general leve when this reporting goes into effect it will have the benefit of 131000 fewer 88vav x 11 pages flowing to the presiding bishopric annually that is I1 thinkchink something like 250 reams of paper reports fewer than we have had incidentally this all contemplates the substantial growth of the church even with the growth of the church there will be that reduction the entire reporting system copy attached you have a copy in the back section of your binder the only thing that you would need in a ward is the duplication of several of these pages for each 0off the classes but basically this is the reporting system for the ward and for the stake and that which comescommes to general church headquarters there are ten items in the introduction of this there will be 52 stock items that will be obsolete in church distribution

now by way ofexampleof example I1 have here the reporting system for one auxiliary thatchatchac has been used until the present there are 34 items one of them 75 pages others of them up to 50 pages all of this is presently required to be filled out in some startling detail for the operation of one of the auxiliaries that is all replaced by this one page and I1 might mentionm in passing that this is not the auxiliary that has the most extensive reporting system we just chose this one as the sample the cost in paper alone will be reduced in excess of a quarter of a million dollars annually in this revision of reports

now the criteria of the reporting system 1 it is individual and not organizational that is even with this extensive report all we can conclude when we are through with all of this is how the individual is doing in thatchatnhatchacnhacchad one organization we still do not know the extent of their other church participation in this report you will be able to see at a glance by individual and by age group on the appropriate level how the church is doing in all of the organizations that are serving him we are blind paraphrasing the poet unless we see that in this universauniversal 1 plan nothing is worth the making if itic does not build the man why build these programs glorious if man unbuilded goes in vain we build this church unless the member also grows 2 these reports are informational not motivational to report it to get them to do it now thatchatnhatnhac has been the theory behind a lot of this that if you ask them toco report it they would have to do itlc that is a theory which is demonstrably false if it were true all that we have been doing and all that we were requiring should have perfected us years ago the reports now are informational president lee in his sermon talked about the gathering of information these reports will be purely informational 3 these reports will stop on the level of their use generally speaking most of what was collected came into general church headquarters through all the channels now the basic reports on individuals will slopstopscop at the ward level where they are useful there will be an accumulation by age groups and categories to go to the stake and then a compilation of the total that will come into general church headquarters now in putting all this together there has been this rule followed very vigorously in order toco survive as an item in the report it had to be more than interesting it had to be more than useful it had to be proved essential so that you will have the basic essential information next what can you do to support it we suppose that this reporting system is not perfect and that it will undergo some revision it will be easy to revise because 153

itic isLs so smaltsmallsmail it can be changed as we need to add items so we are asking that you support it you have the whole thing there and it is worth thirty minutes of your time to sit down and go through it if you will read the brief instructional book I1 thinkchink you will find that you will know more about each individual you will know more about the boy and whether he is in seminary and takingcaking care of his aaronic priesthood and MIA and sunday school and all the rest it will be correlated recently two letters were sent out one from president kimball to the regional representatives in a sense asking you to cease and desist on preparing your own system of reports to gather information I1 think it was that letter that caused the reaction in fact president lee quoted thatchatchac entire lettletterr that interested toeme that he was following the thing hahe was applauding with that simple sentence dear brethren your recent letter on reports will bring a shout from dan to beersheba sincerely and then signed we are asking you to report it you will have the same instrument that we as the general authorities have thatchatchac onepageone page accumulation of the basic information for your use then of course as you go into your stakes you can have thatchatchab information that is there locally both in the stake and if you call for it in the ward so you should have sufficient information there was likewise a letter sent out recently from the first presidency addressed to all general authorities department heads auxiliary readsheads etc in the which is called attention to this new reporting system and there was a very terse sentence that said absolutely no reports of any kind whatsoeverwhats oever let me repeat that absolutely no reports of any kind whatsoever will be prepared and distributed and sent out without going through dsas the letter explained the committee that has to do with correlated reports there will be the nedneed on occasion for some special reports and of course they can be accommodated now one word with reference toco the inhousein house reports we know that some of the auxiliary organizations mustausemuse have a special report for instance the relief society on such a matter as the garment manufacturing distribution etc but we see no reason for any of the organizations at all to have any activity reports coming up throngthrougchrougnh their channels other than these basic reports coming through the priesthood channel the question is will you be able toco have all the information you need my son the other day said he wanted to bring home a little item about the size of the end of a pencil he is working in an engineering course and he wanted to bring it homehon to look at it under his brothers microscope helielleile wanted to see the circuit it was operating just a little tiny electronic instrument no bigger than the end of a pencil two or three of them replace the equipequipmentnentmentmenc that formerly has taken an entire room I1 thinkchink you have seen these little calculators that you can hold in one hand that means that you can buy some calculators half as big as this room now for 100 or 200 because we are learning toco do better with something smaller and that is the principle I1 guess which these reports are organized so we plead with you to sustain and support this it will have the usual trauma in getting it introduced but the savings are monumental in money adequate in timelimecimelemelemu millions of hours of faithful work by our clerks and our numbersdumbersmembers of the church we must redeem them from that burden so we commend to you this simplified report and in conclusion pray that something of the same might ultimately be accomplished with our programs I1 think in view of what president lee said that is our responsibility all of us in leadership positions to work to thatchatchacchan end APPENDIX D

ABSTRACT

since its organization the church has kept records of its members and their church activity the foremost means of gathering this data has been printed report forms this thesis traces the history of formal reports used by the church and empha- sizes information on membership and vital data as well as activity in priesthood and auxilaubilauxiliaryiarylary organizations financial reports ofolloil011 organizations and individual persons as well as personalized confidential reports and minutes of meetings were not used the thesis analyzes the type of information called for rather than the statistical figures themselves there have been four major shifts of emphasis in church formal reporting systems the earliest forms emphasized the number of ordinances performed and persons enrolled then around the turn of the twentieth century the reports stressed attendance as well as the status of organizations in the period around 1940 some annual and quarterly reports were replaced by monthly reports which zeroed in on individual wards and not just stake totals the last shift came in the mid1960smid 1960s with the fornfornisformsis stressing the correlated activity of the individual church member and not organization mechanics COMMITTEE APPROVAL f galak J u4ua richard 0 daiakhaiakgalalcolantcowantcowany committeeklchairman Y MmclvinumelMcLjvinoVinU peterspetersquQu Ccommitteeafe6febenibemenibememberr la19 Z 7 ezzez z Z l9c- yz ry orterporter Departdepartiedepartmedepartmentme nT chairlchairmannan
