We celebrated independence day July 4th. As our sisters are from the USA and from 50 countries , it was great for all of us to learn and review the events leading to the birth of this country This land was prepared for the Restoration of the Gospel. At Relief Society this week, President Harman and Sister Briggs, our new Assistant to the President, and President Poulsen, inspired us with a lesson about the history of the birth of our country and reminded us of the scriptures in the Book of Mormon that refer to this country's preparation to be the birthplace of the Restoration of the Gospel.
Many attended the Choir's weekly broadcast which featured patriotic songs.
Temple Square is beautiful in the summer. The flowers are growing fast and the sky is bright blue, almost every day.

This picture was taken after the Choir broadcast on Sunday . Sisters from many countries invite our guests to take a tour of Temple Square in many different languages. A picture similar to this was in the July Ensign. Check it out and see our beautiful Temple Square sisters. |

Many, many tours are given everyday...Sometimes Sisters have to find special places for our guests to stand while they tell them about the history and basic beliefs of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day-Saints |
