Church at Home !!!

The Swiss Temple.
The Frankfurt, Germany Temple

It seems like six months have gone by fast. I can't believe I'm sitting here in front of my TV listening to conference again allready. I swear the world is spinning faster and faster. It was a great session this morning. I can't believe they announced five more temples. One is going to be in Rome, Italy. Amazing. I wonder how close it will be to the Vatican???? My dear son and my dear niece both went on missions for the church in Rome. It is the hardest mission in the church. I read a wonderful article about it's growth in the Ensign this month. With a temple in its mist, we should really see the work, In the Rome mission ,break through the brick wall, that is the Catholic Church, and surge. It's always been interesting to me that the Milan mission has had so much greater success than the Rome mission right next to it. It just another testimony to me that God's work will be done no matter how hard the adversary fights. The gospel just keeps chipping away at the mountain until that big stone is broken free and rolls forth among all nations. Dear Son and Dear Niece must just be so excited that it will now be easier for the people they loved and taught, to receive the blessings of the temple.

My frustration comes from not having time or energy (meaning gas money and physical ability) to travel to St. George, an hour and 1/2 away, to attend the temple as I would like. I really miss going. For awhile I managed to go every week. I would leave work at 3:00 on Fridays, attend a session and spend the night with dear daughter and her husband, then travel home Saturday. It was such a wonderful Island of peace in my life. I hope to be able to have the means and time soon. I'll keep praying for the way and the Lord will provide. Mean while I have a current reccommend, and am ready to go when the way opens.

I'll sign off now and feast on the words of God's current prophets, seers, and revelators. How wonderful it is to know God speaks to us through his servants the prophets.
