(G)MG is how I write to you. Commenting is one way to write to me.
If you want your comment published: No swearing, graphic content, name-calling of any kind, or outbound links to anything but official Church sites.
In addition, comments must be 100% relevant, funny, uplifting, helpful, friendly... well-written, concise, and true. Disparaging comments often don't meet those standards. Comments on (G)MG are personal notes to me, not part of a comment war. You are not entitled to have your ideas hosted on my personal blog. There are a zillion places for that, and only one (G)MG.
And I'd suggest writing your comment in Word and pasting it. That way Blogger won't eat it if it's over the word limit.
The location in the Philippines is Urdaneta, Pangasinan, about 3 and a half hours north of Manila. This brings our temples in the Philippines to three, and we feel so so blessed!!
ReplyDeleteI just kinda skimmed over this until I noticed Tiajuana. Wow. That is...well, that is going to be difficult to do. But wow.

I was reading the old testiment the other day and found a scripture that said that there would be a temple in Egypt and that Assyria (Present Day Iran) would be one in brotherhood with Isreal.
ReplyDeleteSometimes I read scriptures like that and think, "there is no way..." but then I realize that was how the people felt when the Prophets testified that Isreal would be carried away into babylon, or when they testified of the coming of the Messiah.
When the church announces new temples I am always thrilled to see the comming to pass of the prophecies of the Lord to his people.
This is my first visit to your blog, and may I just say I appreciate you for what you are trying to do. As far as the temple in Tijuana, i've spent multiple weeks down there on service expeditions. And it is a little scary and I won't pretend that none of satan's work is going on down there. But the members of the church there are so strong and honestly some of the most valiant people i've ever had the honor to meet. When the Tijuana temple was announced, it brought tears of joy to my eyes to think of the temple blessings they will have available to them :)
