A historical record should be kept by the Church for missionary work, for salvation, and for future generations. As a District Church historian, I have the duty to train the different clerks and church historians of every unit under the District to update the annual histories of the district for submission to Church history archives.
Five clerks, out of 8, have attended our training this morning at the La Carlota Meetinghouse.
President Mario A. Malacaman of the La Carlota Philippines District presided the training. He reminded the participants how important is the training session for the day, especially in keeping the records of the Church and also preparing the historical records of the Church for edifying the saints, for missionary work, and for the benefits of the next generations.
I conducted the training session for 3 hours, covering the following topics: the simple qualification of a clerk/church historian, the doctrinal foundation of keeping a record, the cycles of Church history preparation and collections, and the coverage of reporting a church historical events.
