This past Sunday we mentioned the new lessons the full time missionaries are to receive in the MTC regarding how to use Family History to advance their work. The lessons are short but provide the spirit of this work. There have been pilot programs throughout the church for several years now in which the Elders and Sisters have used our family history resources as a way to start conversations about the gospel. These programs have been very fruitful. When I spoke with our new missionary last week, he said that they were actively pursuing this program in his last ward in Moapa. Our other Elder, knew nothing about it. Please go to this link and you can learn more about the program and think of friends and neighbors who might be interested. http://broadcast.lds.org/elearning/FHD/Local_Support/Consultant/FH_Missionary/player.html Family History has become a very popular "hobby" throughout the world. I think that this will be a great help to the missionary effort.
