Provo Tabernacle

I know it's been forever since I have updated. But not a lot goes on here. I guess that's good. How ever our beloved Tabernacle burnt to destruction two weeks ago. It is totally gutted. It is not sure if it can be saved. This is the place that Cameron played with the Utah Youth Symphony when they had Concerts. This building is very old and a big loss.







There was a portrait of Jesus that had burned and as you can see Jesus is all that is left. A Christmas Miracle some say.


Pioneers constructed the Provo Tabernacle from 1883 to 1898. The cost was $100,000. Not many buildings have hosted LDS General Conference, but it took place at the Provo Tabernacle in 1886 and 1887. Since it's dedication in 1898, the Provo Tabernacle has been the venue for many historic events. Latter-Day Saint prophets, U.S. presidents and eminent scholars have come to the Tabernacle to give speeches and presentations. But the Provo Tabernacle was also a place where schoolchildren sang, community members were honored in funerals, and people of various faiths met to pray. The Tabernacle was not only a grand building to behold, it was a grand place to come together.

The Annual not to be mistaken for the Semi Annual Florida Missionary Mom Luncheon

Lunch was at Salsa Leedos in West Jordan. We had a last minute change and they were great. We were able to take up one side of the restaurant.
