Draper Temple

We, Melody, Marty, Bruce, Tara, Shelly, and our friend Damian went to the Draper Temple open house Wednesday.  The Temple is just breath taking.  The walls in the Ordnance Rooms are unbelievable, the Celestial Room in in the center of the Temple the celing goes all the way to just under the Angel Moroni, the Christal chandelier is huge and dominates the Room.  

Our assignments for the new transfuse are very special. We are in charge of the tours at the Humintarian Center,  We work in the Call Center where we call people who have received free gifts from ads to see if they are interested in more information on the Church.  We still work at Legacy theater, the Beehive House and the South Visitors Center.  The week starting on the eighth of March we will spend at the Family Tree Center at Park City.  The Church has a apartment at Park City where we will stay during our assignment there.   

We were talking to Sister Tofinga from Micronesia last week.  She as a smallish girlish Missionary.  She told us that she loves sports.  She played basket ball for her National Team and has competed in Karate in meets.  She has competed in the Asia Games.  She said that She cried all night when she received Her mission call because she was afraid of being around all the Sisters on the Square.  She loves her Mission.  

She had a great story about keeping the Sabbath Day.  Her friends on the Team wanted to have a party on Sunday.  She didn't know if She should go so she asked her Mother.  Her Mom told her that she should do what she felt like she should do.  She was going to go when her Dad told her No, you should not go. She was home when She got a phone call from her best friends Mother that there had been an accident and her friend was dead.  Her friends had been drinking at the Party and had driven off the road on the way home, one death and several of her friends where in the Hospital in critial condition.   If She had not stayed home that Sunday she may have been dead.
