Mormon Church says Emotions Surface as Northwest African American Museum Opens

I just read a wonderful blog article on 123 Idaho: Mormon Church says Emotions Surface as Northwest African American Museum Opens.

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints donated computers, a digital imaging system and other equipment and software to the Genealogy Research Center located in the Museum. Local Latter-day Saint family history experts provided training to center personnel.

Some estimates put attendance at the museum opening on Saturday at over 1,000 with over half of those spending time in the genealogy center. Stowell said the seats were occupied and the computers were in use all day.

I encourage you to stop by and read the full article with pictures at: http://123idaho.blogspot.com/2008/03/

Update: I just found the original source of this article comes from the LDS Newsroom:
