AN LDS TEMPLE IN ROME, ITALY!!
i served a mission in rome from spring of '97
to december of '98.
of course i started screaming and running around the
kitchen. my kids ran in wondering what the deal was.
i told them and they joined in. i doubt they got it-
they jump on any excuse to scream and run around.
g and i have watched the announcement 8 times on the
internet. i can't get enough of it! i love the
reaction of all who were present!!
(to watch, click on the link above. go to the 4th frame,
'president thomas s. monson', and start @ 4:58)
i can't help but think back to the wonderful, faithful italian
church members who saved and then traveled such a long
distance to switzerland so they could receive the blessings
of the temple! i love them and hope to see them soon.
garrett and i plan to save up and travel to rome so we can
be there when they dedicate that beautiful building.
who's in?

Derek made me a promise when we were married that if they ever built a temple in Rome, we would be there for the dedication. So we are definitely in! We need to meet up there!! What a dream come true that would be.
How long will it take to build the temple? A couple of years? I've always thought that if Amy ever goes to Italy - I want to go too. That would be magnifico!! (I know -that was probably incorrect but at least I tried.)
Me Me Me! I want to go too! What an incredible announcement. I bet you were so excited. Chad served in Norway but I don't think that there is much of a chance for a temple there to soon, maybe someday, anyhow I want to come to Rome with you...WE ARE IN!!!
We will for sure be in for a babymoon by then :) And I am serious...please come and take some pics of my baby when she is born! :)
I wish...that is going to be awesome!
