I love that President Henry B Eyring used the word
gatherers in his recent talk at
LDS General Conference. To think of ourselves as gatherers as we are working on our family history makes a powerful impact. Not only are we finding names of our ancestors, we are gathering them through stories, photos, records, and ultimately gathering hearts together.
Think of yourself as a gatherer next time you search through stories, photos, and records, or the next time you discover an ancestor you haven't heard of. Think of the great, eternal work you are performing when you take that person's name to the temple, or when you attach photos and memories to an ancestor. You are a gatherer!
