“To Order Items from Church Distribution Centers,” Ensign, Feb. 1979, 68
To Order Items from Church Distribution Centers
Frequently in “Keeping Pace” and within the text of articles, reference is made to items which can be ordered from Church distribution centers. The ordering procedure is really very simple. Just give your order to the individual in your ward or branch who coordinates requests for materials and supplies made by priesthood leaders, auxiliary organizations, and individual members. (This person is usually one of the ward clerks.) He has a Publications Catalog which lists current stock numbers, prices, and item descriptions.
If for some reason, however, you are unable to submit your order through a unit representative and you don’t have an official order form, simply write a check for the exact amount of purchase and include a description of the desired items and the stock numbers. (If you don’t know the stock number, consult the catalog in your ward meetinghouse library.) Send your order to the distribution center nearest you. (See addresses below.) The distribution center will pay postage. Allow about two weeks for delivery. (Over-the-counter purchases at the Salt Lake Distribution Center continue to be welcomed as in the past.)
