I mean to bookmark it in your Web browser (which is the equivalent of 1950s tech on a Web browser

). If you're using Chrome, you can click the "star" in the browser address bar. That'll save it as a "bookmark" so you can go back to this thread directly. Alternatively, click on the words "Board index" in the breadcrumb trail (Home > Board Index) to find the Hymn Discussion board.
As for not being allowed to access Facebook, the best advice I can give is as a parent myself.
Talk with your parents about what you're looking to achieve, and feel free to show them my advice from this thread. Facebook is going to be a much better resource for you than any other site, including TikTok, Reddit, and even this site for finding people to collaborate with musically, critiquing your performances, getting professional advice, and making connections (which are critical if you want to explore songwriting or more serious performance improvements). Show them that you'll be responsible, and share with them your progress. I don't know your parents, but if my kid did that with me, I'd very gladly support it.
If they say no, then that's fine. But unfortunately, I don't think the right people are necessarily seeing this post here.
To be honest, I think TikTok is much more harmful than Facebook to a lot of people...but I understand it's unavoidable that all your friends are likely there. If you can shine the light there, that's great. But I don't think you'll find many who can help with gospel music questions.
