Digital Missionary Scavenger Hunt

Gift of Thumbs is working on a list of creative ideas to share the gospel online. Most of these things are one and done! Trying to keep the Sabbath day holy? These are great ways to spend time online on a Sunday. Share this with someone who is preparing to serve a mission!

Do you have other ideas that could be included on this list?  Let us know in the comments!  We might add some!

1. Visit Mormon.org and create a profile. 
You can only create it once but you can always go back and update it.

2. On Amazon.com write a customer review for the Book of Mormon.
Give it a 5 star rating, and share your testimony.  If you have more time, the church has plenty of other materials on amazon that you can rate as well. 

3. Find your local church meetinghouse on Google maps, and write a review. 

Give the building a 5 stars rating!  If you're writing about the building you currently attend, extend an invitation for visitors.  The following are links to the building I attended when I was in young moens.  First find it on Google Maps.  The review will show up on Google+.  You can write reviews for any of the church buildings.  After you do your current building, if you want to do more, start with buildings you attended for a while, then do buildings you've visited.

4. Find the temple you attend on Google maps, and write a review.
Give the temple a 5 star rating.  Talk about how beautiful the temple is and the feelings you have when you attend.  Maybe explain a bit about what the temple is and about why it is important to you.  There are more than a hundred temples so start with the ones that you've visited or other favorites.  A lot of people have written reviews of the San Diego California Temple.  Scroll down on the page for some ideas.  I also suggest checking out ldschurchtemples.com if you want more ideas.

5. Like the church's official Facebook page, follow the official church accounts on Twitter, Google+, and Pinterest. 
Technically you can do this more than once if you have more than one account on these platform.  Other excellent accounts include: Mormon Channel on YouTube and Instagram and the Church History blog on Tumblr.

6. Write reviews for the mobile apps that the church has developed.
Give them 5 star ratings (unless it doesn't work or something - give helpful feedback).  I'd recommend sticking to apps you actually use.  Keep in mind that all the apps the church has produced are free to download!  Technically you can write a new review each time the app updates.

7. Answer FAQs on Mormon.org.

You can only answer each question one time but there are over 100 questions you can provide answers to.  You can go back and edit your responses later if you want to.  Keep in mind that you answer this questions in the same place that you create your profile.

8. On goodreads.com com write a review of the Book of Mormon.
Give it a 5 star rating.  If you have more time, the church has plenty of other materials on amazon that you can rate as well.

9. On rottentomatoes.com write a review for Meet the Mormons.
Who cares what the critics think?  Did you like it? Have you seen any of these DVDs from the Mormon Tabernacle Choir? You can write reviews for them as well.  You can also rate LDS movies on Netflix, Amazon Instant Video, vudu, Google play, and iTunes.
