Week 98

this week i received a strong testimony on something that i was never really interested in... family history!!! I always thought family history was for old people ... but this week my mind was changed forever! we had the chance to do some family history and i had two awesome experiences!                                                                1.  one morning while looking at my family tree i started to put my dads name and all his brothers below my Grandma and Grandpa Wagners name.  as i put them in the computer, i came upon my uncle Donald's name.  As I was looking at the information that other people had already inputted, I found a link to a website and i clicked on it.  as the page loaded i saw the headstone of my uncle Donald Wagner and i was just overwhelmed with a peaceful feeling of comfort, that I know where he is!  I felt the spirit so strong,  i can't describe it but i know that the Plan of Salvation is the true plan of God and will lead us to eternal happiness.  

2.  on friday morning we were able to go again and do family history work! with my testimony now strengthened a little bit, more thanks to my last experience, i was really excited to see what i would find! so i went right to work and started searching!  guess what i was able to do? 9, 9 names of my ancestors were found and i was able to send their names to the temple! i felt sooo happy and uplifted, i couldnt wipe the smile off my face! 

Family history work is amazing!! i know that thanks to the Priesthood that we hold, these ordinances can be effected! i know that we are instruments in the Lords hands as we do this work! i LOVE family history and have learned that it is for everyone!!! 

(A little miss communication for our ward activity! This is how many people showed up... Needless to say we are doing it again this week)
