Quick, Informative Guide Helps Church Members Find Family Names for the Temple
7:52 AM
(Image from Barnes & Noble)
If there's one thing members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints are known for (besides not drinking coffee), it's their love of genealogy/family history. The Church has long encouraged and supported its people in exploring their roots, seeking out their dead, and performing eternal ordinances by proxy for their deceased family members in its temples. To help in this effort, the Church created FamilySearch.org, a family tree-building website that houses a massive database of records and other information to help people create complete and accurate trees. The site is collaborative, user friendly, and totally free for all users (although only Church members can access the site's temple features). If you are interested in family history, it's a website you simply must check out. You will likely be stunned by the amount of information about your ancestors already in the database. FamilySearch really is incredible.


(Readalikes: I've never really read a family history guide before, so I'm not sure what to compare this one to. You?)
Grade:
If this were a movie, it would be rated:
To the FTC, with love: I received a finished copy of Find Names for the Temple from its very generous authors in exchange for an honest review. Thank you!

Comments make me feel special, so go crazy! Just keep it clean and civil. Feel free to speak your mind (I always do), but be aware that I will delete any offensive comments.
P.S.: Don't panic if your comment doesn't show up right away. I have to approve each one before it posts to prevent spam. It's annoying, but it works!
