BREAKING TEMPLE NEWS': First Presidency Releases Official Information about the Ephraim Utah Temple

Hello again, everyone! On this Friday, we have some more breaking temple news. The site location has been confirmed and the preliminary details released for the Ephraim Utah Temple. Plans call for a three-story temple of roughly 39,000 square feet. The temple will rise on a 9.16 acre site located at the intersection of 400 East and 200 North. Although no groundbreaking date has been announced, it's good to see the Church taking this next step on Ephraim.

Regarding temple groundbreakings, information I have informally receieved indicates that as many as 17 temples could have groundbreakings occur within the next 6 months I know of at least four (Farmington New Mexico, Willamette Valley Oregon, Elko Nevada, and Grand Junction Colorado) that could have groundbreakings set to occur by the end of this month or early next month.

For my part, I continue to monitor all of this and will be sure to bring you word of updates as I become aware thereof. In the meantime, that does it for now. Any and all comments are, as always, welcome and appreciated, on any post at any time, as long as such comments are made in accordance with the established guidelines. Thank you for the privilege of your time.

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.
