Wow
- what a surprise! Several fans have donated $165 as of this
morning to help keep the Temple going! I am just amazed by their kindness
and generosity, and so appreciative to them for sharing their hard-earned
money. Thank you very much. Nick fans are simply the best!
A new picture is in the Confessional. Thanks to Marra, several links of interest: photos from Jacksonville, photos from Jacksonville and Tampa, downloads from Duran Duran Belgium, and downloads from duranduranlive.com. |
