Assignement #1:
Leaving in 2010 is such a blessing because i can beneficiate from all the resources that provides internet. How amazing it is to find videos about the church with positive messages about families, faith, gratitude etc, etc... on Youtube, or to be able to go to the church website and find the scriptures or other materials in at least 4 different languages. I can go and research online to see what kind of work needs to be done for my ancestors or if i'm traveling i can look it up on lds.org and see where the closest chapel is and at what time they start their sacrement.
The church is spreading the word of God throughout the world by using this wonderful tool which is the net. Members of the church and non-members can watch live general conferences or any firesides as often they want and in the language they want. We are so blessed to have all this technology around us however it's up to us to make sure that we have limits and that we know how to control ourselves with the use of internet. It is a beautiful tool that can turn evil if not controlled!
I think there is at least one talk every general conference about the temptations that are from the net such as pornography or violence. The leaders of the church are not only talking to the members but also to people in the world. The leaders want to show that the gospel and it's truthfulness are not only for its members but also for those who are looking for the light of God in their lives.
I'm grateful for internet that allows anyone to hear about the gospel anywhere in the world in any languages!!!
