Branch Family History Fireside

With much planning and work, the full-time missionaries of our branch planned, advertised, conducted, and executed a brilliant fireside aimed at motivating us to become interested in and to engage in family history work. On the evening of November 9th, 2013, the Branch along with some special guests received an opportunity to explore modern methods of doing family history. Not only is it a favorite hobby among society today, it is also an important work of redemption for Latter-Day Saints. After a delicious potluck dinner, participants in the missionary hosted activity got a taste some of the work that Sister Meili Shen has started to do in her own family tree. We also heard from Matt Ward, who told us how his family's influence has exploded over the past few generations. Ben Tsai shared how the church has influenced him and his wife's family over the years. President Patrick Shen related how he obtained his book of family names. Helen He showed us a picture of her father's family and pictures of previous missionaries. At the same time, the children were treated to a puppet show on avoiding destructive substances by Elder and Sister Oaks and the Kentlands sister missionaries.  After the general presentations in the cultural, everyone split into two groups. Brother Kurt Christensen, co-director of the Washington DC Family History Center, advised a group in the cultural on how to get started on family history. Elder Gerber-Kai demonstrated to a smaller group in the chapel the process of submitting names for temple work. Brother Christensen came and participated in the latter half of Elder Gerber-Kai's group. Everyone felt a greater appreciation for their own story and a strong motivation to learn more about their ancestors!

Announcement for Family History Night

各位弟兄姐妹,蒙哥马利华禹分会的朋友们:

我们非常高兴的邀请你来参加我们 在11月9日晚上六点至八点举行的记录家谱活动。

教友们都知道, 完成家谱对于我们信仰非常重要。透过在圣殿中的仪式, 我们能为那些从来没有机会接受福音的祖先得到机会接受福音。

所有熟悉中国文化的朋友们也都知道,中国传统文化中,有崇尚先辈的习俗,记录家谱的传统已经传承了上千年。所以, 家族历史和完成家谱对每一个中国人都有很大的意义.

欢迎大家来参加我们这次介绍家谱的活动,在这次活动中,我们能够看到现代科技在记录家谱中的应用,使得记录千年的家谱变得十分简单。大家也可以在学习记录家谱的过程中,体会记录家谱的乐趣。

请各位带一份简单的菜肴与大家分享。

Brothers and Sister, Friends of the Montgomery Branch:

We would like to invite you to a very special Branch activity on the evening of November 9, 2013, from 6 to 8 PM. The theme of the activity will be family history.

For those of you who are members of our Church, you know the importance of doing genealogical research and temple ordinances for our ancestors who never had the opportunity to learn of the Gospel of Jesus Christ during their lifetimes.

For those of you who are familiar with Chinese culture and tradition, you also know that our people have a history of keeping records of our ancestors dating back hundreds, even thousands, of years.

Please come and see how the Church has integrated cutting-edge technology with a Chinese tradition that is thousands of years old. Most importantly, come and experience how family history research can be meaningful and fun for everyone in your family, young and young at heart.

Please bring a simple dish to share potluck style.

地点 (Location): 16 Kent Gardens Circle, Gaithersburg, MD 20878

日期与时间 (Date and Time): Saturday, November 9, 6 to 8 PM
