Have they added more powerful computers yet? Sometimes it is sooooooo
slow now, and Utah isn't even on the system yet. I could knit a sweater while
I'm waiting for screens to change sometimes, and I'm not much of a knitter.

I was recently told that the hoped for plan is to have all the remaining
Utah and Idaho temples ROLLED OUT by the end of

this month or next month at the latest. So, I would expect an
accelerated emailing of consultants informing them they can start training.



NOW .. if I could just get people in the wards in our stake and our stake
moving on getting consultants called.

So far, only one consultant in one ward in our stake has been called
despite being informed each time a stake in Utah or Idaho is added that it's
coming ... coming SOON and FAST to the wards and stakes.



Sometimes you can't help but think of the parable of the bridesmaids when
it comes to getting the wards and stakes moving on this.
