BREAKING TEMPLE NEWS: Open House and Dedication Dates Announced for Port-au-Prince Haiti Temple

Hello again, everyone! I am back with some breaking temple news. The First Presidency announced today that an open house and dedication has been set for the Port-au-Prince Haiti Temple. The open house will take place from Saturday April 20-Saturday May 4, excluding the Sundays of April 21 and 28. As per the newly-established tradition, a youth devotional will be held on Saturday May 18, and the dedication of the temple is set to occur the following day in three sessions (at 9:00 AM, noon, and 3:00 PM Haiti time, which is 7;00 AM, 10:00 AM, and 1:00 PM Utah time).

It appears that this temple's dedication will occur before that of the Fortaleza Brazil Temple, but I would anticipate that we will soon hear news on the dedication of that temple as well. I am not shocked that the temple will be dedicated within 1.5 years of the time its' construction began, and I was pleased to bring you word of this development.

I continue to monitor any and all Church news and temple developments and will do my level best to pass word of those along to you all as I receive it. That does it for this post. Any and all comments are, as always, welcome and appreciated, on any post at any time. Thank you for the privilege of your time. If you enjoyed what you read here and would like to stay informed of newly-added content, please feel free to subscribe. 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.
