I've searched for an answer and have come up dry-- I'm hoping a genius can help me!

I'm in a YSA bishopric and we want to text the YSA often about activities. I have a great group text app for my iPhone; the only trouble I'm having is finding an easy way of download contact info into gmail for our large ward. Do I have to do each one one at a time or is there an easy "Download All" feature (or process) that I'm missing?

Thanks in advance!

Eric

You might want to be aware of a new policy document that just came out. Meetinghouse Technology Policy.

In it: "4.8.3 The use of MLS data and membership information in third party software is prohibited."

Not sure where that leaves you since I don't hold the keys for interpreting it for your ward.

Thank you! You're not getting by NEW policy! Released today. You're on top of it!

The email came out Sunday. (??) Hmmm, I wonder what they updated today.

Probably a minor text change.
