So What's This Blog About?


Hi! This blog, entitled "Kadena Okinawa Temple and Family History", is not an official website of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints but is meant to be a source of tips and inspiration related to temple and family history work. I'll try to share tidbits I learn from time to time--mostly related to FamilySearch.org--and hope you will find them useful. Also, since plans to construct the Okinawa Japan Temple were officially announced, I'll try to give periodic updates and other news regarding the temple. (Hopefully anyone looking for info on "LDS temples", "Latter-day Saint temples", or "Mormon temples" will find their way to this blog.)


If something posted seems off or doesn't quite make sense, please forgive me. I'm still figuring this out myself. 😃 (Feel free to pass me feedback.)

I participated in a few different portions of the conference: group session for German family history individual session for family history strategy temple and family history instruction (handle separately) various tutorial videos (Korean/German family history research) keynote addresses I was blown away by how much specialized information was available across a variety of topics and regions and how much I was able to learn during the conference. I went into the conference as a real novice and gained tons of insights into how to do German family history research as well a whole slew of new resources--including several websites and various working-aids--that I can use to research gaps in my family tree and discover new names. I felt empowered after learning from professional genealogists. I'm excited to dig in and use my new resources and leverage my new knowledge; I'm sure both will help me for years to come. I am SOOO glad I choose to participate
