Experience Connection: Here's How

This challenge has renewed me. I needed and wanted to feel more connected with my family and you made it possible. Thank you.

It helped me feel purposeful, it increased the calm and peace in our home.

I finally made peace with myself. I don't like record searching much but have never allowed myself to work on photo books, etc... because to me they didn't "count." Now I am enjoying the freedom to do what makes sense for me at this time in my life.

Family history is a mood booster! We could have been fighting or having a bad day, but when it was time for the experiment, we all started smiling and laughing.

I put down my phone for a change and got to know my personal family that I love so much better! I really thought I knew them, but I know them WAY better now.

I really felt like this was a support for me and my family, it was there to help me out when I needed ideas, but it wasn't so challenging that it made me anxious.... I felt more connected to my family that needs me now, and that, to me, was priceless.

Family is so important! I learned that just a few minutes of connection each day brings a wealth of love and hope, especially while we have been quarantined.

I learned that I want to find all that I can about my family background and also to encourage others to do the same. Not just names and dates...but WHO they were and what they did with their lives.

I learned that learning about ancestors doesn't have to be boring!!
