I am so happy for Joy, she is out in Utah visiting Jeremy, Lora and Bailey and she gets to spend the weekends with her friends. Janet and McKenna took her to the Draper Temple Open house the day after she arrived in Utah. Then last Sunday she was able to attend the Dedication ceremony with the Coopers! When she was being interviewed by their Bishop for a recommend to go, he asked her to speak in church on Sunday before they all went to the ceremony. She spoke on temples. She had not attended their ward before and I was very surprised that she accepted the opportunity to speak but from what I am told, she did well. It just goes to show you that the church is the same everywhere and she felt at home with our very dear friends who were also speaking that day. I have never been to a dedication ceremony before so I made her tell me all about it. What a blessed event! She now has a deeper love for temples.
