Temples
As the new executive secretary I’ve changed a couple things. The most obvious is the Sunday program. The previous secretary kept the same image on the cover, the Mesa Temple. I don’t have a problem with that, but I decided that it was time for a little change. Starting last week I’ve started putting a different temple on the program each week. Last week was Nauvoo, this week is St. George. I realized today that when I was born there were 17 operating temples. In the ENTIRE WORLD. The church was celebrating it’s 150th year when I was born and there were 17 temples. It is hard to believe that there were so few. When I got married, 22 years later, there were 114. 33 temples were dedicated in 2000, nearly twice the number that were in existence after 150 years. — Just a little trivia.
