Exciting Time for Italian Mormons!

In October of 2008, the Church announced that a temple was to be built in Rome. It's been two years, and so far nothing has been done.

Yesterday at church, it was announced that the groundbreaking is to be held in two weeks. That means that construction will begin soon, and the Saints in Italy can look forward to having a temple of their own. There are no pictures or drawings of any sort on the Church website, or else I would post one.

We will be gone by the time the temple is dedicated, but I'm excited for the Saints who live in Italy. What a blessing the temple will be to this country.
