Internet Savvy! ARRGH!
We had a fun night last night learning more about how to protect our families from the inappropriate and 'murky waters' of the internet! Ted Chan showed us how to use K9 Web Protection. A FREE internet filtering program that comes highly recommended! What is better than free and easy to use??! Here is the website where you can download this awesome program and learn more about it! www.k9webprotection.com
Lynne Stites and Charlene Ottley taught us more about navigating the church website at lds.org. At this website you can go to the "Stake and Ward Websites" section and sign in (you will need your membership number to sign in for the first time) to view things such as lesson schedules, stake directory, stake and ward calendars, etc. Add your email to your account and get updates on events that are happening in the ward and stake. Other things you can do from this website include downloading hymns, primary songs, pictures, conference talks, scriptures, magazine articles, etc. You name it!! There are numerous resources on this amazing website to help us with our everyday efforts to live the gospel. Did you know that there are also Family Home Evening lessons and ideas? Awesome! The church has done a really good job making this website helpful for us families!
Lastly, we learned more about the new Family Search website found here: FamilySearch.org This is a great website that the Church has made to help us further our genealogy work! You can learn more about doing Family History with free online classes. Sign up to start doing Family Search Indexing from your home! There are a lot of wonderful things to help us with our Family History!
For those of you who weren't able to come last night, you missed out on our Tasting Table DEBUT!! We had some truly scrumptious refreshments!! Including, Oatmeal Fudge Cookie Bars from Lynne Stites, Cheese Ball from Melanie Westover, Chocolate Chip Cheese Ball from Allison Larson(me), German Pancakes from Michelle Smith, and Peanut Butter No Bake Cookies from Delynn Craigo and Shaylene Espericueta! You really missed out if you weren't there...but we will still have these fabulous recipes available if you are interested!!
A special thanks to Brother Chan, Sister Harris, Sister Ottley, and Sister Stites for being our guest speakers! And thanks to those who shared their recipes for our Tasting Table Debut!
