family search

yay! i started working on my genealogy tonight. thanks to the ward specialist who kindly took 30 minutes of her evening to come over and show me how to set up an account, i was able to start entering lola carmen's and lolo romualdo's information.

i also got a glimpse of the excitement that comes with finding and linking oneself with ones ancestors. thursday night i will meet up with the women of our relief society at the temple and do some much needed work for those who have passed. i am both thrilled and reverenced to be able to be baptised and confirmed for lola carmen. i know this will help her on her ongoing journey.

i know that feelings of peace, love and joy i feel right now confirm to me that family work is important and good. being able to complete these ordinances for lola shows me that Heavenly Father loves her and all the rest of His children... myself included :).
