Temple and Family History
Pending ward council approval, we are planning a special ward temple day in early January possibly followed by a simple "dessert-only" social. Plans are in the the works for another fun (but different) temple chart for 2026 which will again be displayed on one of the bulletin boards in the building -- more informtion to come!
Please remember that the Granite FamilySearch Center (2720 E. Newcastle Drive) is open on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays from 10:00 am. to 5:00 p.m. and then again from 7:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. It is also open on Sundays from 1:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. The Granite FamilySearch Center has an impressive variety of equipment to digitize audio tapes (reel-to-reel, cassette), film (8mm and Super 8), video (many formats), slides, etc. Of course there are loads of computers there as well. The consultants are very helpful and knowledgeable!
Please send me (kmpris@gmail.com, 801-201-6181) or our Family History consultants an email or text if you would like some one-on-one help with Family History. Consultants are listed in the Tools app under Organizations/Temple and Family History. There are many names there, probably someone you know. If we can't help you, we can find someone who can.
