Update Provided for the Barranquilla Colombia Temple

Hello again, everyone! While I continue to request and invite comments on any previous posts (especially the three which I published in the early hours of this morning that cover my initial predictions for the October 2018 General Conference), and while I have no desire to pull focus away from that, I became aware a short while ago of an update that has been provided for the Barranquilla Colombia Temple,

I looked back at the history of my posts on this blog, and from that, it would appear that, while I mentioned that the Barranquilla Colombia Temple had had an update to its' construction status a while ago, I got distracted and failed to note what that update was before the end of the post in question. I apologize for that.

The update I should have provided for that temple on that occasion was that the interior work was progressing, that landscaping on the temple grounds was nearing completion, and that the exterior of the housing facility had been finished. That update was noted earlier this month.

So today, the latest information of which I have become aware is that the Holiness to the Lord inscription plaque is being gilded, while the inner gardens have been planted on the temple grounds, and that the interior work continues to make progress.

It is wonderful to see the day-to-day changes that occur in relation to temple construction developments all around the world. I will continue to monitor all such developments and will do my level best to pass them along to you as I receive them.

That does it for this post.  Any and all comments are, as always, welcome and appreciated. Thank you for the privilege of your time. Until my next post, I wish each one of you all the best and pray that the Lord will bless you all in everything you do.

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.
