Connections

Part of the joy of working in the temple is making connections.  Last week I connected that I met Barbara ten years ago when she was a non-member, waiting for a missionary, definitely an unusual situation. They came to the temple and it was wonderful to see "The rest of the Story."  She joined the church a few months before he came home, they were married in the temple and now have a family.

This Danish man is involved in wind turbines and was interested in making connection in Nigeria.  He called the Stake President who referred him to one of his branch presidents.  The branch president came to Denmark and I presume they have worked something out. They came to enjoy the temple before he left to go back to Nigeria.  What a fine young man.

  And tonight we had Christian Olsen receive his endowment prior to his mission.  His extended family came and I realized that three of the loveliest ladies I know, are sisters, It was Christian's mother and her two sisters.
