Taking One for the Team

Poor Angel Moroni that stands atop the new Oquirrh Mountain Temple had an "incident" last Saturday. Last Saturday, we had an amazing rain/lightening/thunder/wind storm rip through South Jordan. As my parents and I sat on our back patio watching the wildness all around us, poor Angel Moroni was protecting us. He got struck by lightening as you can see by the black face, arm, and trumpet. After church the following day, my parents and I drove up to see him and I took this picture. As he is covered in gold (now cajun gold), he will have to have some repairs made to him before the Temple is dedicated in August. Way to protect us! Keep up the good work! If you would like to attend the Open House of the Oquirrh Mountain Temple (and it's free so why wouldn't you?), please get reservations at the following website: http://www.lds.org/reservations/0,10751,1619-1-561,00.html.
