818

LDS.net’s Mormon Minute recaps LDS news that happened during the week in the Mormon world. This week, we talk about: the LDS.org redesign, the dedication of the Cordoba Argentina Temple, and “Lift” by Mormon Channel.

0:06 – LDS.org Re Design

Lds.org is continuing clean up of the site this month with a new menu. After surveying 3,000 visitors, only 29% could find the gospel doctrine study guide. With the redesign, the Church says 75% could now find the same guide. People can continue submitting feedback to the site near the bottom of the home page.

0:23 – Argentina Temple Dedication

The Cordoba Argentina Temple was dedicated this past Sunday by President Uchtdorf following a special cultural celebration on Saturday. The temple open house had over 49,000 visitors during a two week span. This is the 145th operating temple in the world.

0:42 – Mormon Channel’s “Lift”

And Mormon Channel’s video “Lift” tells the story of family, friends and neighbors that served a woman with multiple sclerosis over a span of seven years. The story has gained a lot of attention and the video currently has over 75,000 views.
