Indenpendance Ward

Saturday was spent with many of our good friends at the Washington DC temple. We went with Sarah and Celeste and a van load with the Tabers, who came later
The Bishop had a party for the whole ward at his home.
We have a great mix in the Independence Ward. We are a center city ward with a combination of many students finishing up in med school, law. dental and others. Some have loved the city Brotherly love so much they decided to stay like the Choules. The Tabers came after retiring. We have many people who were born and raised here,,like ME! I continuing enjoy driving by Temple Hospital and think about how many parents lived a block and a half away from the hospital while my  dad tried to finish med school and my mom tried to keep her  pregnancy to full term ( without success).
The other blessing is watching the Philadelphia Temple. Everyday I watch the finishing touches.The open house will begin Aug 5, the day after we finish our mission!
