I have been wondering, did your new Presidency begin at the temple yet? I've been curious as to who the new presidency are.
I plan on coming over on the 11th to do some initiatory and sealings, with my daughter and son-in-law. I know you won't be there, but just wanted you to know.
I might see some of the workers I should know.
Thanks
Sister Hunter

You will be surprised at the new additions to the chapel. I think you will like the new decorations. You should also like the new restrooms in the foyer. They are really something. They could be found in a castle. The marble is beautiful.
