Marching Through Our Memories: A Family History Exploration
Hosted at the Mesa Temple FamilySearch Center, this program is designed to connect our children and families to the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. by exploring the power of our own family stories. Guided by Jack and Jill's five national programmatic thrusts, we'll blend storytelling, technology, civic reflection, and genealogical research into a meaningful experience for you and your children.
Each grade group will engage in tailored, hands-on activities, from family tree crafts and world maps to oral history interviews and discussions on public policy within this beautiful facility. With guidance from FamilySearch volunteers and potential support from the Black Family Genealogy & History Society of Arizona, participants will gain tools to begin or expand their personal family history using the FamilySearch platform.
