Hello again, everyone! Hope you are all well today. I wanted to pass on some temple news that, to me, is significant. I hope that many of you may find this information interesting. Let's dive right in to that subject.
First of all, while open house tours continue for the Meridian Idaho Temple, the Cedar City Utah Temple, where open house tours will begin this Friday, is currently having media and VIP tours. That was great to find out about.
Secondly, there has been a change in the sconstruction status of the Barranquilla Colombia Temple. It has now been noted that the cladding for the tower is being added, and that the shingling is being completed for the housing facility. Based on that new information, and on the fact that the Rome Italy temple has not progressed in a while, I am wondering how likely it is that Barranquilla could be the last temple dedicated next year, while Rome is pushed back into 2019. We know that Rome has experienced delays during its lengthy construction period. It is interesting to think about. Please let me know your thoughts on that.
Aside from that, and noting that the Church's main site for the Asuncion Paraguay Temple still does not mention its closure, which was originally anticipated to happen this upcoming Sunday, there have not been any other developments of any kind in terms of temple news.
That does it for this post. Any comments are, as always, welcome and appreciated. Thank you for the privilege of your time, and may the Lord bless you all in all that you do.

More Temple News
I have had a lifelong love for Church history, which has extended to ongoing reports of the ministry of our apostles and prophets, General Conference, and all temple developments. This blog enables me to share that love with all who read my thoughts on these developments, which are sometimes reported multiple times per day as needed.

In addition to my life-long love for the subjects which I cover in the posts of this blog, I have long held the belief that we can disagree without becoming disagreeable. Differences of opinion are natural, while being disagreeable in expressing those differences is not. And in that sense, I have no desire to close the door on anyone who earnestly desires to contribute to the ongoing dialogue on subjects covered in the posts on this blog.
At the same time, however, I recognize that we live in a time when incivility, discourtesy, unkindness, and even cyber-bullying has regrettably become part of online interactions. With that in mind, while anyone who wishes can comment on anything if they choose to do so, I hereby reserve the right to immediately delete any comments which are critical, unkind, lack civility, or promote prodcuts, services, and values contrary to either the Church, or to the rules of online etiquette.
I'd also like to remind all who comment here that I try to respond personally to each individual comment as I feel is appropriate. Such replies are not meant to end the conversation, but to acknowledge earnest feedback as it is submitted.
And in order to better preserve the spirit and pure intentions for which this blog was established, I also hereby request that anyone not commenting with a regular user name (particularly those whose comments appear under the "Unknown" or "Anonymous" monikers, give the rest of us a name to work with in addressing any replies. If such individuals do not wish to disclose their actual given names, a pseudonym or nickname would suffice.
Any comments made by individuals who opt to not give a name by which they can ber identified may, depending on the substance and tone of such comments, be subject to deletion as well. I would respectfully ask that all of us do all we can to keep the dialogue positive, polite, and without malice or ill-will. May the Lord bless us all in our discussion of these important matters.
