This is brother and sister Neal, members of the Bedford Branch who accompanied a group of our young people and a number of adults from the Branch and from the Roanoke Virginia Stake to perform baptisms at the Washington DC Temple this past Saturday, April 10. The day began before 6 a.m, with everyone gathering at the parking lot at the Bedford chapel and then sharing rides together up to the Temple. It is about a 4-hr trip.

It was a very special day and a great privilege to be in the House of the Lord, participating in saving ordinances on behalf of our ancesters and other deceased persons who did not have the opportunity of receiving these essential ordinances, like baptism, while in this life.

It was really a lot of fun getting better acquainted with brother and sister Neal. We had a very good time visiting as we drove together .
