El Templo

   The Santo Domingo Temple is beautiful at night.  We can actually see the spire and the Angel Moroni from our windows through some trees.  Just want to share this beauty.  We have been going each week and it actually is helping me to understand some Spanish words as I listen because I know what the instruction is in English.  It looks very white in the lights, but it is really a pinkish and sand color combination that seems right for a country with so much sand.                                                                                                                  

One Saturday the people of the branch came on a little bus to the temple.  The young people were doing baptisms and the adults were either helping them or going with  one of the sisters who was there for the first time.  Here is the branch president, left, with Elder Yturralde and Elder McIntyre and then one of the young women with Sister Yturralde and the Relief Society president, Josefa.  We were waiting outside for our time to go inside.  As usual, the flowers were beautiful!
