Temple Ordinances

Barb of Utah

If a person's records were shared with the temple over two years ago and the ordinances are still not showing as completed, can we request and do them ourselves?

Is there a way to find out if they have already been done but not recorded?

I am just another 'lowly' User/Patron ...

[ And, I happen to be a Member of the Church ... ]

Nothing secretive about it ...

Short Answers: 'Yes'; and, 'Yes.

For "Temple' Work that is "Share[d] with the 'Temple' System" ... Can we request and do them ourselves?

'Yes', you can, in fact, just about ANY (Member) User/Patron CAN "Request" the "Reservation" for "Temple" Work that has been "Share[d] with the 'Temple' System".

You can simply, "Unshare" from the "Temple" System; and, then, "Request" that yourself.

Or, possibly, just, "Request", that "Temple' Work", that you had already "Share[d] with the 'Temple' System".

Here are some "Knowledge Article" in 'FamilySearch";

Can I reserve an ordinance that has been shared with the temple?

How long does it take for the temple to complete shared names?

For "Temple" Work that has been "Completed ... "Is there a way to find out if they have already been done but not recorded?"

I shared family names. Do the completed ordinances appear on my completed ordinances list?

I hope this helps, somewhat.
