Our Mission & Motto
On this Day in Church History’s motto is, “Discover your Past. Strengthen your Future.” It’s our mission to make church and family history more relevant and accessible. Church and family history is not about the past; It’s about you and me TODAY and the connections we discover in our heritage. Finding and making these connections can embolden and emblazon our faith today, tomorrow and always! Read more about why I created the blog here.
