I have a quick question if your ward doesn't have a program yet. How would you go about starting one? The Bishop????

Excellent question, SS. I'll ask around and get back to you.

Oh, but FYI, most of them are done at a stake level I believe. At least, that's how it is here - it's put on by LDS Family Services, one group per stake. But still I'll find out how you can get one going in your area.

I've contacted one of our group leaders. She said your bishop or stake president could request a group through LDS-FS or you could call LDS-FS and ask about a group. Groups are set up as needed and LDS-FS has the most direct contact with groups and leaders.

Here is the contact info for the New York LDS-FS agency (saw that you're from NY on your public profile, looked this info up on the LDS-FS website):

to Get a program in your area you need a bishop and a stake president. A stake pres requests a group be formed from the nearest lds family services. I have access to the form if you want it, or tell you how to access the form. You also are in need of a bishop as well , because it is he that will call 2 part time service missionaies to serve 6 months to 2 years to run the group. let me know if you need any more info on the program.
