25 Best Vlogs From 2016

For those who don't know, Caid and I became Missionary Vloggers in 2016. For those of you who don't know what a missionary vlogger is, welcome to the club. Vlogging is a new (the past 7ish years) thing that has happened on Youtube where people make video blogs about their life. It is sort of like reality TV, but cutting out all the networks, middlemen, and agendas. It is a great medium to share your daily life with others.
"Five Minutes of Fergie" (our Youtube channel and website name) is five minute or less videos about our lives, sharing about missions and life and of course, baby (for the grandparents). I think in the next five years, missionary vlogging will become a "thing," instead of just something we are making up as we go. We put out at least one vlog a week, and feel that this is an amazing way to connect and let people get a better picture into the lives of missionaries, and the ministry that we have been called to.
Here are our favorite vlogs and videos from 2016 (Highlights from our Five Minutes of Fergie channel with 169 videos, and our Building Living Stones channel with 111 videos) in any kinda order:

In 2017 we will continue to post at least one video a week! How can you keep up?
*BEST OPTION: subscribe to us on Youtube! If you have a gmail account, when you watch a video on Youtube, under the video is a red "subscribe" video. Click it, and every time we made a video, it will go on our page of subscriptions. This also lets us know that you are invested and care about it (we LOVE subscribers!)
*Other option #1: watch us on Facebook. Since we have a lot of friends and family who are not into Youtube, we know this is probably the way most people see our videos--I make sure to post them on my Facebook page.
*Other option #2: watch us on my blog: Every week I post the videos we made, along with other interesting things I've found through the week in a blog named (some version of) "Sunday Funday."
*Other option #3: Subscribe to our e-newsletters at (the bottom of) our Living Stones website: we send out one e-mail newsletter a month about Living Stones, and one e-mail newsletter a month about us Fergies, with links to our best vlogs.
Happy watching, and cheers to lots more vlogs in 2017!
