    You don't know my wife, she is worse than I am with this. She just feels more guilty than I do.

    Still probably won't happen.

      • Wait, getting interviewed by the bishop quarterly is way worse than what we had before.

        Booo!

            Sure you will! All you have to do is "like" all your families facebook posts and text a couple times. Golden!

            • Wait, quarterly interviews? <redacted>

              This is worse. This is still reporting and paperwork. This is still hounding someone into a room who doesn't want to get into a room.

              This upends the status quo. I'm out of the thread since I'm getting negative.

                Hold up. I had a toddler bump her head, so I missed that part. The bishop is interviewing "ministering" companions?

                  Probably not just the bishop. But quarterly PPIs. I have no details, but that is how it sounded to me. Probably will be deligated to the EQ and RS.

                    Yeah, my guess is that quarterly, someone from EQ and RS will contact you and ask how it's going with your families. No biggie.

                      Much less reporting, much less paperwork, much less hounding. Much more doing what works and what people really want and need.

                        Exactly. No, we didn't throw the programs away, but changed them into something much more valuable and relevant.

                          • To be honest, I'm not sure I have a great idea as to whether or not the new First Presidency is more progressive or more conservative - but it sure looks like they aren't afraid of change.

                            • JL, you're a good dude. I wish you well.

                              Wuap, please stay in touch.

                              I'm out of here, and on to my next adventure.

                              I'll check my mailbox once in a while, in case some of you want to stay in contact.

                              Take care, everyone.

                                Whatever direction you think that lies in-- and I think it most accurate to say what they do defies neat and simple description-- they have a lot to do and are wasting no time doing it.
