Dan and I received our first church calling as a married couple. We are now the Indexing Specialist of our ward... You may ask how in the world people who have never indexed can be specialist? But I guess in this case the Title comes before the actual expertise. We will be teaching the class in our ward and will be helping encourage other couples to index (I think).
The indexing project, for those who don't know, is the churches effort to take microfilm and census' and other historical documents and digitize them so that they are easy to search through online so that people can find their family names. Our stakes goal is to complete 1 million names in 1 year (so by this June 1st). We have completed almost 400,000 and have 7 months left.
Indexing isn't hard, it just takes some time and you just have to try and figure out sometimes messy handwriting. YAY for family history!
These cursive letters are helpful!
