Serving their common man: LDS members help Provo community church that helped during tabernacle fire

It wasn't their church, but on this Saturday, members of the LDS Church's Lakeside 7th Ward and Lakeside 10th Ward treated it as if it were. It was about serving their common man and being good neighbors. It was also about turning a tragic event into a bonding experience between LDS faithful and members of the Provo Community United Church of Christ.

When flames destroyed the Provo Tabernacle last December, it looked as if events planned for the National Day of Prayer would not happen. "When the tabernacle burned down, we offered to help open our facilities," said the Rev. Daniel Haas.
