The Orem Stonewood FamilySearch Center staff invite and welcome family and ward youth and adult groups from its six-stake service area to schedule visits for hands-on group training on Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday evenings. By special arrangement group visits and training may be scheduled at other times including Saturday and Sunday evenings. We have eight computers with internet connections and can train using computer projector presentations for large groups in the Center's group room or, if necessary in the Stonewood Stake Center chapel or one of its other large rooms. Participants are welcome to bring their own laptops on which they should be able to get an internet connection just as they can in most buildings of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Saints.
