Pink copy of temple recommends
How long should a ward keep the pink copy of the Temple Recommends from the TR binder? All I can find is vague language on the subject. Can anyone point to something more specific?

Absent any better advice, I'd keep them until they expire.

Re: Pink copy of temple recommends
I think the instructions in the book say to keep them for two years after the last recommend is issued, in other words, until they expire. (I have not seen an actual recommend book in a while.)
If a member loses a recommend that is still current, you will still have a record of when it was issued, the recommend number, and anything else you might need to get the lost recommend identified and replaced.

It would be better to mark the recommend Lost or Stolen rather than Cancelled, a small but important difference.russellhltn wrote:And the lost recommend cancelled.
