Family History

The Laurel class had an activity tonight focusing on family history research.  Thanks to Bro. Eucker and Bro. Green for helping instruct those who were there.  Just a reminder that, in order to get started on family history, all you need is your membership number.  If you don't have that, ask the ward clerk or a member of the bishopric.  Once you have the number, go to www.new.familysearch.org to create a logon.  It's easy and really fun.  The Priests and Laurels have been asked to prepare at least one family name to bring for temple baptisms in April.  Working on family history would also make a great value project for Personal Progress.  It's easier than ever before--check it out!

NOTE:  You can click on the link below (see list on right side) to reach the new Family Search page.
