In the stress and busyness of last week I failed to post the one serene event that made me pause mid-week. Wednesday December 23, 9:45pm (yes that's almost my bedtime) I reported to the St. George Temple to ENJOY 2 hours of cleaning clean. This is also the day to celebrate the life of Joseph Smith. As Hamilton continually reminded me, it was his 204th birthday. Happy Birthday Joseph.
I arrived at the temple in regular temple going clothes and was immediately given white scrubs to change into. After changing we met in the chapel for a prayer and thought before going on to our assignment. I was assigned to the baptistry. It was quiet and peaceful and there were times I would visualize the fact that I was cleaning the House of the Lord. Incredible, to say the least.
This will be a peaceful experience and cherished memory. Then Christmas happened 2 days later.
