Gila Valley Temple


On May 8, 2010, we attended the Gila Valley Temple open house in Central, Arizona. We are so excited to witness the building of another temple, especially in the good old Gila Valley, where Eileen and her sisters grew up. We were thrilled to hear that it would be built in Central on the same softball fields that we played on when we were young women there. The Gila Valley is a special place and our grandparents and great grandparents and ancestors were among the early settlers there. Grandma Inez and Grandpa Leland Carpenter were cotton farmers in Eden all their lives. We know they are all rejoicing in the heavens above at this temple being built there.
