Description

Thank you Kathy Stone, Linda Teather, and really all of you for joining us in today. These sessions are always a fun way to stay connected as a community and look ahead to the coming week.

As you probably know, you can now use the Substack app 👇 for mobile devices to view and record your own Live sessions. For our family history community, I’ve also posted a recording about Getting Started with Live in our January program MissionGenealogy.org/office-hours.

I’ve discovered that by tracking the chat thread on my desktop browser while broadcasting live from my iPad (🎉). Unfortunately, chat threads don’t persist so I’m afraid I can’t thank all of you individually. It is a delight to see you join. 🥰

I gave a couple of shameless plugs for coming events on the Projectkin Calendar. First is Thursday’s Recipe event to wrap up my Lafayette Project. You can learn all about it, and register here:

Second is next week’s Live event, followed by our April Kathy’s Corner event. Kathy plans to pick up on the idea I’ll be talking about with timelines to show you how you can use timelines to help manage your family's archive of artifacts. The thing is, for Europe and the Americas, our timing for Live programs lands during Easter Sunday. Is this a conflict for you? Let us know what you think. 👇
