Osgood Notes LDS Help to Hare Krishna Temple Construction
SPANISH FORK, UTAH -- In his daily "Osgood File" commentary, CBS News
columnist Charles Osgood told of the assistance given by the LDS
Church and many Church members to the Hare Krishnas in their effort
to build a Temple in Spanish Fork, Utah. A local LDS bishop donated
$25,000 and over several years some 4,000 Church members have donated
labor doing work like digging trenches, creating an artificial lake,
and installing siding. One of the Temple's leaders, Charu Das, says
"Were it not for their help, things would not be as far along as they
are. They've been just exemplary."
