The Temple was opened today even though it was a national holiday and a Monday. There are many who can only attend the temple on a Holiday because of work and many visiting NYC. Stan and I were coordinators today and everything seemed to go smoothly.
We were busy as many attended sessions and participated in the ordinances in the Temple. It was a warm day in New York City, and afterwards we came home and rested.
This evening we went out and walked through Times Square. Our destination...to see the Empire State Building lite up in a special way.
Times Square was VERY crowded and reminded us a lot of walking the Strip in Las Vegas. With the summer season approaching, we are not sure when we will do this again!
This was a great sight...seeing the Empire State Building in Red White and Blue. We are proud of this great nation. We are also so blessed to live in this great land and the freedoms we enjoy. We are so thankful to be serving in the New York Manhattan Temple. What a great day!
