Temple work completed under Messages

Rebecca Ann Anderson said: The temple work shown on Messages is great. I was wondering if there is a way to add the names to Lists if anyone needs more work like a spouse or parents. I have to go through each name individually to check the names that need more work. Thank you.

Cindy Hecker said: Correct you have to go thru the names and find more. Then you reserve to your temple list. If you are finding a name on Ordinances ready that has been shared with the temple, even if you want to do more of that person's ordinances (or family members) they may not be available to you. Very likely they are shared with the temple list which is how you got them. You would have to contact the person or hope Ordinances ready will give it to you. It would be complicated to make the list you suggest from what I can imagine.

I use ordinances ready as a starting point for research sometimes, because many times the name given to me is actually a duplicate and just doesn't have enough details for the system to find that duplicate to merge it with.

It is not a bad thing to have to do some research and work to find the people needing temple ordinances. You get to know your ancestors more that way.
