I need a camera that will stop movement better as I have many grandchildren and great grandchildren. I have been thinking about getting the gx8. That should remove the blur that I get with many images of the grandchildren.

Nope. GX8 is not going to do any better than the EPL6 with the same lens.  To remove fast-moving-grandchildren blur, there are only two solutions.

The first is to set a higher shutter speed, get a lens with the fastest aperture you can afford,  learn how to focus it properly, and perhaps add a bounce flash,

The second is to have them like you enough that they will pause for a proper portrait.
