Ministering Brothers

  1. The men assigned to watch over and regularly check in on a set of households in a ward — part of the ministering program that replaced home teaching in 2018.

In 2018 the Church replaced the more formal home teaching program with "ministering," meant to be a more flexible, relationship-focused way of caring for one another. Ministering brothers are Melchizedek Priesthood holders assigned a few families or individuals, whom they contact and serve in whatever way best fits their needs rather than by delivering a set monthly lesson.
