Youth in Las Vegas share beliefs in online video

Youth of the Las Vegas Nevada Redrock Stake shared their beliefs on camera at a recent Youth Conference, answering Elder Ballard’s call to share the Gospel online. The production was beautiful, and I see several good things coming of this:

Elder Ballard’s Questions Can Now Be Answered on MormonTestimonies.org

We’ve just launched a new version of MormonTestimonies.org and we’ve changed our assumption of what a “testimony” is.

Share the Gospel online with LDS.net and Facebook

The More Good Foundation recently launched LDS.net, a social network for Church members to share their Mormon beliefs online. Features include blogs, forums, videos, photos, testimonies, news, and chat.
