Introducción a FamilySearch.

Jueves, Augusto 27 a las siete de la noche.

Esta clase les presentará familysearch.org, que es un sitio web que la iglesia utiliza para permitir que la gente use el internet para encontrar a sus antepasados. Los antepasados que se encuentran están conectados a FamilyTree, una parte de familysearch.org. Una vez conectado a FamilyTree, podras obtener permiso para hacer la obra del templo para tus antepasados. Los ancestros se encuentran en grandes colecciones de registros de familysearch.org, incluyendo muchos registros de México, América Central, América del Sur y el Caribe. Esta es una clase introductoria y no se requiere experiencia previa con familysearch.org.

Duración de la clase: 1½ horas.
