Larry,
First, I would like to thank you for your insightful, helpful articles.
The Church recently released October 2015 General Conference Video Quotes and the word “Veme” is used in the titles of the video. I was wondering if you know what the word means and its reference to the videos. The closest translation that I can find is that “Veme” in Czech means “in me” and in Albanian it means “disrupt and interrogate.” Verme in Spanish means “See me.” Just wondering. Thanks!
You mentioned at least 3 different URLs a person could go to to do different things. Isn’t there a single point of login/entry from which you could access those functions?
Larry,
As I read the list of the things you can do with an LDS account, I didn’t see mention of seminary registration. Parents are required to go and register their student for seminary, declare their intent to enroll, and which school they will attend. They cannot do this without an LDS account. As a seminary teacher, this information is vital to us as we “invite all” to sign up and enroll in seminary.
I hope that is helpful.

Hno. Richman:
Soy Setenta de Área, y justamente estos días he estado pensando en cuantos recursos la Iglesia tiene disponibles para líderes y no son utilizados porque quizás no conocen, o no recuerdan.
Estoy para tener un Consejo de Coordinación (integran Pte. de Misión, del Templo, y Ptes. de Estaca con el Setenta que lo preside), y uno de los temas que trataré es cuantos recursos hay disponibles y no se usan apropiadamente en todos los niveles de liderazgo y aún los miembros en general. ¿Dónde puedo obtener la lista completa?
Gracias por su ayuda permanente, lo leo en Yammer.
Saludos cordiales.
