Individuals and Families
Individual and family Annual History should include stories about ourselves, our families, and our friends involving our faith and the works of the Lord. As we become more aware of the Lord’s hand in our lives, and the lives of those around us, we become a witness to what the book of Mormon describes* “what great things the Lord hath done”**
*Daniel Rumsey
