16 New Temple Presidents Called
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.
New Angel Moroni placed atop the Bountiful Utah Temple today.
Good news for the Bountiful Utah Temple: Today, a new Angel Moroni was placed atop that temple to replace the one that was irreparably damaged from a lightning strike on May 22. Thanks to you all for your readership and interest.

Missionary that disappeared has been found
Hello, dear readers. Wanted to let you know of the beginning and end of a situation. Nearly 48 hours ago, a missionary serving in Utah disappeared, seemingly without a trace. That missionary was found safe and sound today after the police and the LDS Church enlisted the public's help in finding her. The reasons for her disappearance and reappearance are as yet unknown, but more details will be released as they become available. That's the good news for today. For more details on this matter, please see KSL.com. Hope you all are well.

Important Temple Developments
Hello, all! Posting today with the latest temple news, and it is exciting! Apparently the government-imposed delays preventing the construction of the Fortaleza Brazil temple from going forward have been utterly eliminated. What that means is that full-scale construction is anticipated to start any day now. The temple is anticipated to be completed in 2019.
Additionally, the Church has apparently decided not to commence construction on the Rio de Janeiro Brazil Temple until after the conclusion of the Summer Olympic games. It makes sense that the Church wouldn't want to upstage the games. But I wouldn't be surprised if the groundbreaking date for that temple is announced soon and set for after the Olympics. I also anticipate perhaps two or three other groundbreakings will be announced before too long, but it's anyone's guess as to when that will happen. I am hoping that the Church will soon identify a site for those temples for whom a site exists. I have updated my personal temple progress report to reflect these developments. I will be sure to keep my eye on all temple-related news and events and post about them here as soon as I can. Thanks to you all for your readership and interest. You are the reason that I blog. And I promise, the personal update is coming...just as soon as there's no more Church news to report. This blog has become a place where I can share news about the Church I love, and it means everything in the world to me that you guys take time to read (and sometimes share) my posts. Best wishes to you all.
