    New Temple in Missouri for Fundamentalist Mormons!

    It’s cool to be part of history! I worked on the new Fundamentalist Mormon Temple in Bountiful, Missouri, which will be dedicated Oct 12, 2004. I went out the weekend before to tour the temple and meet the independent group who built the temple. It will be open to all sincere believers, no tithing or recommend required. (There will be a screening process though. They won’t let just anyone in!) Anyway, come explore the temple with me!
