Birmingham Stake - Harborne Ward October 26, 2014

The members of the Birmingham Stake Council were very cordial and happy to embrace the new day of Self-Reliance. The Area Seventy have been visiting each of the stake presidents to instruct them on their role in the Self-Reliance Initiative. So the groundwork is being laid and the changes will roll forth during the coming year. Most of the manuals aren't coming in professional printing yet. We're printing and binding pdf file copies in our office.
