Opening New Chapel!!

Well yesterday was our first Sunday in our new Chapel and it is simply amazing. It is definitely a diamond in the rough in our area. It is two stories high and is very simply designed but yet so beautiful and special. This little ward has worked so hard and have been so obedient and the Lord has blessed them all in such a big way. Elder Ortega and I were the lucky ones to be the first people to give talks over the new podium. Elder Ortega talked about the atonement and I talked about the importance of prophets in these days. It was such a great Sunday but what made it even great was the joy that we saw on the faces of our investigators. We had nine investigators come to church and they all told us about how the chapel has a special feel about it. How walking through the door they felt as if they were leaving the stresses of everyday and the worries of the world behind, and for three hours they felt at peace and uplifted. The whole area is talking about the “Mormons” and that is just what we want. This weekend will be the dedication and the following weekend will be the Open House.
