Family History Expo (Updated)

Dear Family History Consultant:

We want to make you aware of a family history conference occurring soon in the Salt Lake City, Utah area. You may find information at this conference beneficial in helping members find their ancestors—particularly the free classes for family history consultants and workers.

The theme for this year's event is “Learn the Tech to Trace Your Roots!” It will be held at the South Towne Exposition Center (9575 South State Street), Sandy, Utah, August 28-29, 2009, and is sponsored by Family History Expos.com and FamilySearch.

Please note the free Family History Consultant Training classes in the schedule. These classes begin Saturday, August 29, 1:00-5:00 p.m. in Hall 4. Simply bring the Free Classes coupon below for access to the consultant classes. There is also no cost for attending the keynote address or the exhibit hall, but you will need to show the Free Classes coupon to be admitted.

If you wish to attend the other classes, pre-registration is $68.00 through August 24. After August 24, you may register at the door. The cost will be $78.00 for both days and $48.00 per day. Individuals who want to attend only one or two classes and visit the Exhibit Hall can register for single classes at $12.00 each.

Over 100 classes will be presented by industry leaders and experts from the local and national genealogical community as well as staff from the Church’s Family History Department. Products and services from genealogy companies will also be showcased in an exhibit hall where you can meet with specialists for free personal consultations on research questions or problems.

Presenting to the Bishops

I'm fortunate to be able to speak to the bishops this Thursday. I am excited to share a little of what I know and this new system. I won't have a lot of time, so I have to be direct. I'm grateful to be called to this position. I hope I can help many members take advantage of these blessings!
