COME AND SEE
―For those using the Internet and mobile phones, there
are new ways to invite others to ―come and see.‖ Let‘s
make sharing our faith online more a part of our daily life.
LDS.org, Mormon.org, Facebook, Twitter—all provide
opportunities.‖

5. TECHNOLOGY
SOCIAL MEDIA RESOURCES
―With so many social media resources and a multitude of
more or less useful gadgets at our disposal, sharing the
good news of the gospel is easier and the effects more far-
reaching than ever before. In fact, I am almost afraid that
some listening have already sent text messages like ‗He‘s
been speaking for 10 minutes and still no aviation
analogy!‘ My dear young friends, perhaps the Lord‘s
encouragement to ‗open [your] mouths‘ might today
include ‗use your hands‘ to blog and text message the
gospel to all the world! But please remember, all at the
right time and at the right place.‖
President Dieter F. Uchtdorf

BLESSINGS OF TECHNOLOGY
―Brothers and sisters, with the blessings of modern
technology, we can express gratitude and joy about God‘s
great plan for His children in a way that can be heard not
only around our workplace but around the world.
Sometimes a single phrase of testimony can set events in
motion that affect someone‘s life for eternity.‖
