Wow, it’s hot! Come in for a cold craft beer!

Girl makes all-star impact on baseball diamond By Taylor Dixon taylor@youarecurrent.com Ten-year-old Amelia Lindheimer is just like one of the boys. She laces up her cleats, grabs her mitt and YOUTH SPORTS runs onto the field with her youth baseball team, the Giants, of the Fishers Mudsocks Youth Athletic league. The only difference between her and her teammates is that she is the only girl. That doesn’t faze her, though. “It feels like normal, and it’s exciting, too, being the only girl in the league,” Lindheimer said. “It gives me confidence.” Lindheimer, who will be a fifth-grader at Sand Creek Elementary School in August, tried playing softball when she was 6 but kept coming back to baseball. Baseball has always been a big part of her life. She attended her first game when she was 11 months old. This season with the Giants, Lindheimer batted second the entire season and reached base on her last nine at-bats. She also made the Fishers 10-U All-Star team and was set to play in the June 23 All-Star Championship game. Lindheimer also caught the attention of Justine Siegal, the first woman to coach a Major League Baseball team, when her dad, John Lindheimer, posted a video on LinkedIn of her batting. Siegal invited Lindheimer to play in the July 20-24 All-National Championship baseball game in Mesa, Ariz., with the Boston Slammers, an all-girls 10-U travel baseball team. According to Baseball for All, a nonprofit with a mission to get more girls to play baseball, 100,000 girls across the U.S. play youth baseball, but only 1,000 or so go on to play in high school. The organization’s purpose is to allow girls the same opportunities as boys. John said his daughter has been widely accepted on the team and has been able to keep up with the boys. “We’re just very proud of her and it’s been one of the joys of my life watching her have fun and enjoy the same opportu-

nities that millions of boys get with Little League,” John Lindheimer said. “Amelia has always received the support of her teammates who see her as a baseball player, not a girl playing baseball. And without knowing it, she is part of a larger movement, but she carried the responsibility of being the only girl in the league and she did it extremely well.” When not on the diamond, Ameilia enjoys collecting baseball cards and Pokemon cards. Not surprisingly, her favorite movies include baseball classics like “The Sandlot” and “A League of Their Own,” inspired by the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League that ran from 1943-1954. Although girls baseball has not been a popular spectator sport since the 1950s, John Lindheimer hopes to see a resurgence in girls taking up the sport. He said he thinks girls baseball will become an Olympic sport in the next 10 years. Amelia’s goal isn’t to play in high school or receive a baseball scholarship, according to her dad. He said playing youth baseball is simply a fun activity for her, and the family will continue to support her as long as she wants to play. “I just want to make a difference and just help other people get better,” she said. “I just like playing baseball. It’s really fun.” Amelia and her dad want to inspire other girls to play baseball and would like to start a girls baseball club in Fishers. Currently, there are more than three dozen girls youth baseball teams across the U.S. The nearest league is in Chicago. Amelia and her family moved to Fishers from Florida in 2019. Her mother’s name is Andrea, and Amelia has a 29-year-old sister, Fabi.

Indiana Department of Health officials announced June 18 that the first probable case of monkeypox in EDUCATION Indiana in 2022 has been identified. No further information about the patient will be released because of privacy concerns. IDOH Laboratories completed initial testing June 18. According to a press release from the IDOH, confirmatory testing is pending at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The patient remains isolated, and health officials are working to identify anyone the patient may have had close contact with while infectious. “The risk of monkeypox among the general public continues to be extremely low,” State Health Commissioner Dr. Kris Box stated. “Monkeypox is rare and does not easily spread through brief casual contact. Please continue to take the same Box steps you do to protect against any infection, including washing your hands frequently and thoroughly, and check with a health care provider if you have any new signs or symptoms.” Person-to-person transmission is possible either through skin-to-skin contact with body fluids, monkeypox sores or contaminated items, such as bedding or clothing, or through exposure to respiratory droplets during prolonged face-to-face contact. Monkeypox typically begins with fever, headache, chills, muscle aches and exhaustion about five to 21 days after exposure. Within one to three days, sometimes longer, after the appearance of fever, the patient develops a rash, often beginning on the face and then spreading to other parts of the body. Some people may only develop the rash. The illness typically lasts for two to four weeks. People are considered infectious until all scabs from the rash have fallen off. The CDC reports that 113 monkeypox cases have been confirmed in 21 U.S. states and territories this year.

Lawrence council OKs new water rates, delays $250K appropriation for street By Matthew Kent news@geistcurrent.com Lawrence Common Council members approved new water rates and charges for city users during its June 15 meeting. Other agenda items included consideration of appropriating GOVERNMENT $250,000 toward the city’s local road and street fund. The next council meeting is scheduled for 6:30 p.m. July 5 at the Lawrence Government Center, 9001 E. 59th St. What happened: The council approved an ordinance authorizing the city’s water utility to adopt new water rates and charges effective July 1. No one from the public spoke about the changes during a public hearing. What it means: Rates and charges for customers who use water in the city of Lawrence will decrease slightly because of a repeal of the utility receipts tax effective July 1. Gov. Eric Holcomb signed House Bill 1002 in March that repeals the tax, which is built into Lawrence’s water utility rates. Utility Supt. Scott Salsbery said the lowered rates essentially mean that customers will see their rates dip by a few pennies. He said the city plans to communicate the changes to customers on social media and the city’s website, while information will also be provided in July and August utility bills.

DISPATCHES

What happened: The council delayed action on an ordinance that would have appropriated an additional $250,000 for the city’s local road and street fund within the 2022 budget. What it means: Council President Lisa Chavis requested that the council not take action on the ordinance, noting that the public was not given an opportunity to weigh in on the matter through a public hearing. A public hearing will be held at the council’s July 5 meeting because of the delay. “It wasn’t a pressing issue and (City Controller Tyler Douthit) didn’t mind,” Chavis said. City Councilor Maria Rusomaroff said if the council approves the additional $250,000 in spending next month, a majority will be used for a roundabout planned at East 75th Street and Oaklandon Road. Earlier this year, the city was awarded funding as part of an 80 percent match for the project, according to the city’s website. Design work will start this year on the $1.8 million project, which is expected to be completed in 2025, according to the city. Rusomaroff also said she hopes to see a portion of the funding used for a pedestrian signal-light crossing at East 56th Street and Bogey Drive.

MVCSC hires director of technology — The Mt. Vernon Community School Corporation has hired Seth Hamilton as director of technology. He will begin his new role on July 1. Hamilton comes to Mt. Vernon from the MSD Washington Township, where he served 10 years in leadership roles with the technology department.

Express appreciation to a MVCSC employee — The public is able to share a kind message to a bus driver, teacher, cafeteria worker, instructional assistant, custodian or any staff member at Mt.

Lawrence resident receives award for excellence By Will Riddell will@youarecurrent.com Lawrence resident Shawn Wright-Browner was honored with the Tom Paul Outstanding Director of RECOGNITION the Year Award during the June 7 Indiana Association of Career and Technical Education Districts state conference. The award honors “exemplary CTE administrators who are highly respected by their peers for their knowledge, leadership, and commitment to career and technical education.” Wright-Browner is the director of the J. Everett Light Career Center in Indianapolis. The JELCC, according to its website, provides programs for high school students “to explore their passion in an innovative, hands-on, real-world environment.” Although she was honored to receive the award, Wright-Browner said recognition is not what motivates her. She derives satisfaction from helping students navigate career paths in order that they can have a positive impact on their communities. “I do not work to earn awards,” Wright-Browner said. Like many of the students she supports, Wright-Browner’s relationship with career technical education started in high school, where she gained experience working in a hospital. She has been with the JELCC for nearly two decades. The JELCC offers several programs to students in Boone County and Hamilton County schools. The center also works with students at North Central High School. Wright-Browner said all the programs are popular with students.

Many of the JELCC programs provide training for jobs currently in high demand. Wright-Browner said two good examples are the cosmetology program and the culinary arts program. Programs for dental and veterinary careers also are popular. Wright-Browner said another nice aspect to the career center is that it provides students the opportunity to earn college credit. Not only that, but students also don’t have to worry about a significant financial commitment. She said the out-of-pocket cost usually comes in the form of something small, like book fees.

Hindu Temple of Central Indiana to celebrate Ratha Yatra By Taylor Dixon taylor@youarecurrent.com The Hindu Temple of Central Indiana will be filled with people on the morning of July 2 for an Odisha Ratha Yatra EVENT celebration. Odisha, formerly Orissa, is a state on the Bay of Bengal in eastern India. The temple is at 3350 N. German Church Rd., Indianapolis. Hundreds are expected to gather to celebrate the tradition of helping Indian deities Lord Jagannath, Lord Balabhadra and Goddess Subhadra begin their journey to their aunt’s house. The deities will be pulled around the temple to signal their depature as hundreds of people line the temple to celebrate. At the end of the nine-day festival, the deities will be brought back to the temple in the same celebratory fashion. Shriya Una, a member of Jagannath Association of Indiana, said the event brings

Indian people together who now live in Indiana. “They all just join in together and enjoy this festivity,” Una said. “It’s just a day to, you know, come together, have fun, but it also builds connections with the community. It’s something that people really love to do as it is a celebration to the gods.” Ratha Yatra is a daylong event that is open to the public. It will start with chariots being pulled around the temple. That activity will be followed by a cultural program where children and adults perform traditional Indian songs, dances and other forms of art. The celebration also will feature traditional clothing, art and food. The event, which was canceled in 2020 because of the pandemic, was created in 2015. Approximately 400 people attended last year’s event, and organizers expect a larger crowd this year. The festival will conclude July 16 as the chariots are pulled back to the temple.

Local YMCA celebrates 25 years of offering services to Lawrence By Will Riddell will@youarecurrent.com The Benjamin Harrison YMCA recently celebrated 25 years in the City of Lawrence. The entity opened June 14, 1997, on land that was once part of Fort Benjamin Harrison. A quarter century later, it still is a community asset. “We truly try to make the Y accessible for all,” Jenny Sera, center executive and East District vice president said. Sera has been with the nonprofit YMCA of Greater Indianapolis for two decades; however, she started working for the YMCA as a teenager, giving swim lessons at the Cass County Family YMCA in Logansport. Just as Sera has been involved with the YMCA community through much of her life, she said what makes the Benjamin Harrison YMCA, 5736 Lee Rd., Lawrence, special is its history of providing services for everyone. She said the center has services for people ranging in age from 6 to 90. “We are truly a cradle-to-grave organization,” Sera said. As part of the 25th anniversary commemoration, the Benjamin Harrison YMCA will have a Summer Bash fundraiser at 6 p.m. Aug. 18 at Daniel’s Vineyard in McCordsville. More details will be announced as they become available. Since its opening, Sera said the Benjamin Harrison YMCA has strived to provide a range of services for Lawrence residents. She said the center will serve more than 20,000 people this year. Prior to the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, Sera said the Benjamin Harrison YMCA was giving back $500,000 in aid to the community via its programs. She said 30 percent of the families who benefit receive some type of financial aid for its services. Even during the pandemic, Sera said the YMCA found ways to assist the community, such as providing child care to essential workers. Child care is only one of many services offered. It also offers a variety of organized youth sports and camps. Swim lessons are available for members of all ages, and adults can also sign up for a variety of fitness and cardio classes.

itary and was stationed at Fort Benjamin Harrison before it was decommissioned in 1991, has been a member of the Benjamin Harrison YMCA since it opened. He has participated in just about every activity it offers, from aerobics classes to cycling classes. “Over the years, I’ve done all of it,” Carroll said. Carroll said his wife enjoys the classes, too. The couple appreciates the quality of the programs and the people who run them. “Jenny’s staff is amazing,” Carroll said.

“It’s a (professional) feeling-type thing.’ The people there make you feel comfortable walking in the door.” Despite its longevity, Sera said the Benjamin Harrison YMCA faces some challenges, specifically with regard to staffing. She said 90 percent of the staff is comprised of parttime employees and the center is experiencing a lifeguard shortage. Looking ahead to the next 25 years, Sera’s hope is that the Benjamin Harrison YMCA continues to remain a safe space for kids and a place where the community can

come together. She said she wants the facility to extend its reach, helping as many as possible along the way. “We care about the community and the people we serve,” she said.

Annual 4th Fest combines food, fun and, yes, fireworks By Mike Beas news@geistcurrent.com Long before the first fuse is lit, the annual City of Lawrence 4th Fest will offer something for everyone. What begins with a parade starting at Harrison Hill Elementary School concludes a little more than 12 1/2 hours later with a fireworks display guaranteed to light up the sky. In between will be the event’s customary assortment of food and entertainment choices. “The whole thing is really geared toward the family,” said Cori Korn, deputy Chief of staff for the City of Lawrence. “Our Exchange Club distributes 4,500 flags, so it has a very patriotic feel throughout the day.” Serving as this year’s grand marshal is former Lawrence North High School boys basketball coach Jack Keefer, who retired following the 2021-22 season. Keefer is the only boys basketball coach in LN history, compiling a 865-338 record and four state championships during his 46 seasons. Keefer’s half a century diagramming plays (his first four seasons were at Oak Hill High School near Marion, his alma mater) allowed him to coach the likes of Derwin Webb, Todd Leary, Eric Montross, Greg Oden, Mike

Conley and hundreds of other young men he would positively influence. The parade starts at 10 a.m. and is expected to last an hour. More than 50 entries are expected. The parade will be followed by the Classic Car Show, a Fish Fry and the Jeep Jamboree. Registration for the car show is from 9 a.m. to noon. The fee is $15. Awards will be presented in the following categories: Top 20 Open Class, Best Street Rod, Best Muscle Car, Best Street Machine, Best Slammed Mini Truck, Best 4x4, Best Import, Best Rat Rod, Best 50s Custom, Best Military Vehicle, Mayor’s Pick and Best of Show. Attendees can enter the park off Herbert Lord Road off East 56th Street between Post and Franklin roads, or off 56th Street and Franklin Road. The park is about a quarter mile east of Franklin Road. Jennifer Mlott, an award-winning singer-songwriter and choreographer from Indianapolis, takes the stage at 6 p.m. She’ll be followed by Big Roscoe & the Hammers, a party band scheduled to play until fireworks begin at 10 p.m. Among the notable persons expected to take part are Lawrence Mayor Steve Collier, Indianapolis Mayor Joe Hogsett and Supt. of MSD of Lawrence Township Shawn Smith.

Continued from Page 12 Attendees are encouraged to wear their favorite combination of red, white and blue. “It really is a citywide effort,” said Korn, who estimates last year’s 4th Fest attracted approximately 10,000 people during the course of the day. “There’s a lot that goes into it besides the pre-planning of it. It’s truly a team effort.”

Nobody likes to be proven wrong. Well, few of us do, anyway. We take it as a personal defeat. How could we have made the error? We must have had incomplete information. Is it possible that we are not smart? No, certainly not. Our moms told us that we were geniuses. There is no chance that she’d have lied to us. Is it possible that we lack perspective on the matter? We doubt it. Our perspective, from our perspective, is pretty darn good. Maybe they are mistaken in claiming that we were mistaken. Like a turtle flipped upon its back, it takes some real effort for us to get our attitude right when we are shown to have a deeply held, longtime erroneous position. It matters to we good humans that others believe like we do, that they reinforce what we hold true. We like to be reminded that we are intelligent, that we are right! It all adds to our stock of confidence. If we were correct so many times before, we are likely to make the accurate choice the next time we act. Cogent and thoughtful arguments that oppose our views can make us look bad, certainly make us feel bad. But don’t we learn more from our failures than from our successes? Isn’t there a nobility in taking a defeat with grace only to return and become victorious? Are we all caught in some infallibility trap, one that requires that we run from our errors only to never learn from them? The younger a child, the less they seem to care about being corrected. As they age, they begin to find discomfort in their own inaccuracy. Correspondingly, the speed of their learning tends to slow as they age. Is our biggest failure refusing to accept our imperfection?

Friends, I’m recently back from Nerd Camp, and I. Am. Pumped! Technically, I attended a professional development colloquium for teachers on Thomas Jefferson, but for me, a huge American history fan, the weekend was a sort of all-expenses paid Disney experience, complete with like-minded goobers from across the nation, an actual political science professor and surprisingly good food. The best part? I was allotted a single, 1970s-era dorm room with its own bathroom and a super-firm, 2-inch foam mattress. Introvert heaven! So, what did I learn? Besides confirming my view that T.J. is way overrated as president (I’ll give him the Louisiana Purchase and that’s it!), the seminar allowed me to make a few keen social observations. First and foremost, there’s always “that guy.” In this case, it was a gentleman from Illinois who insisted on prefacing each of his questions with a vomiting of historical facts. He talked more than our fearless Ph.D. leader, constantly hijacking the conversation in a condescending manner. We get it, Joshua. You’re smart. Now shut the heck up! Second, people who constantly mutter negative comments under their breath are beyond annoying. I know they know I can hear them, but they don’t seem the least bit concerned about being a distraction from the conversation, not to mention a real energy drag (I’m talking to you, Jinnifer with an “i”). Either speak your mind for everyone to hear or zip it. This rude whispering nonsense doesn’t fly. Finally, in 90-degree heat, even professional educators revert to middle school antics. We just do. I still have five weeks before school starts, but thanks to Nerd Camp, I’m pumped! Peace out.

Versiti in need of blood By Haley Miller news@geistcurrent.com Amid a nationwide blood shortage, Versiti Blood Center of Indiana issued an emergency appeal earlier this month DONATION for blood donations. Versiti’s Area Vice President Penny Schroeder said collections fell 20 percent last month, and the center urgently needs O negative and O positive blood types. “We want to make sure we mitigate any impact to our hospitals and our patients in Indiana,” Schroeder said. “Blood is something that can’t be made in a laboratory. The only way we can get this precious resource is from donors.” Trickle-down effects of the pandemic are largely responsible for the low blood inventory. Several hospitals began offering elective surgeries again at the start of 2022, driving up the need for blood on the shelf. Blood-drive sites that would have drawn many donors prior to the pandemic have yielded fewer donors in 2022. Schroeder said office blood drives, for example, now only attract a third or half of would-be donors because of hybrid work

schedules. “It’s been a unique challenge throughout the pandemic,” Schroeder said. Summertime also exacerbates the situation because Versiti cannot hold high-volume blood drives at high schools and universities during summer break. Schroeder said high school and college students make up 30 percent of Indiana’s blood supply. “As we head into the heart of summer, now is a crucial time for blood donation,” senior medical director Dr. Dan Waxman stated in a recent Versiti press release. “With more people traveling and getting together, there is more opportunity for accidents and the subsequent need for blood.” Potential donors can schedule an appointment online at donate.indiana.versiti.org. Schroeder said the team at Versiti appreciates Hoosiers who help support the blood supply and needs more individuals to add regular blood donations every eight weeks to their to-do list. “Chances are, you or someone you know in your lifetime is going to need blood,” Schroeder said. “It is the blood on the shelf today that literally will save someone’s life tomorrow.”

Carmel teen moves from Disney series to music By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com After appearing in three seasons as Sophia on Disney’s “Sydney to the Max” TV series, Amelia PERFORMING ARTS Wray has been taking an acting break to concentrate on her music. “I love it all,” Wray said of acting and singing. The 17-year-old Wray, who was reared in Carmel, will perform in the July 30 “Boys of Summer” concert at Avondale Music Hall in Chicago. She will perform her single “Moved On” live for the first time. Wray wrote it with the help of singer-songwriter Audrey Paige. Eric Johnson and Marc Johnson, who own The Pop Machine recording studio in Indianapolis, produced and recorded it. Wray also will sing two cover songs she selected in Chicago. In the works is an opportunity for Wray to perform as an opening act for Menudo in Las Vegas in November. Menudo started as a Puerto Rican boy band in 1977. Wray takes vocal lessons from former “American Idol” music supervisor Michael Orland. “He’s been my voice coach for years and I truly thank him for his guidance,” she said. “Music makes me so happy. My goal is to create an EP (extended play album), so I’m writing and writing.” Nonetheless, she said she misses filming and the rehearsal schedule of being on a series. Wray played a recurring character in five episodes in Season 1, 12 episodes in Season 2 and five episodes in Season 3. The show finished filming Season 2 in February 2020, and the episodes were supposed to return six weeks later, but the COVID-19 pandemic put a halt to that. When filming resumed in October 2022, it was quite different with the cast and crew required to wear face masks at all times, except when filming, and the actors couldn’t socialize. “They didn’t even want us to eat lunch together,” Wray said. “During rehearsals, they made us wear the face shields. We’d film a scene and the second they said cut,

we had to put on our masks. We were tested for COVID every day.” The pandemic delay also meant the child actors all looked older than planned when filming resumed. “When we came back, we didn’t look like we were in eighth grade anymore,” Wray said. During the pandemic, Wray appeared in a short segment that was part of the film “Entanglement,” which included 12 shorts. Her segment is a solo short called “Isolation in Lockdown.” Her 10-minute part was filmed at her home. “I play this girl who is trapped in the house during COVID,” Wray said. “This girl is going crazy. ‘I can’t catch a break from my parents and siblings. I just need a place in my house to escape to where I don’t have to talk to anyone.’ “

The girl finds a cleaning closet in her basement. “She makes an invisible friend, which is a mop she calls Leonard,” Wray said. “She rants and talks to him like he’s a friend.” Wray is still auditioning for TV and film opportunities. If she is offered the right opportunity, she said she would love to do another show. “I probably wouldn’t even hesitate,” said Wray, who has one year left in high school. “My goal is to get a film or another TV series, get a little more recognition and then go do a Broadway show.” Wray’s twin brother, Mitchell, is taking a break from acting and is working on fashion designs. The siblings are represented by The Osgood Agency. For tickets to Boys of Summer tour, visit Wray’s Instagram, @ameliawray.

Much ado about fossil words Commentary by Curtis Honeycutt

Interior of Pantheon in Rome. (Photo by Don Knebel)

Christian history of Ancient Roman buildings Commentary by Don Knebel Today, in the last column in the series about Rome, we look at some ancient Roman buildings that surTRAVEL vived more or less intact because they were reused by Christians. During the first three centuries A.D., Rome was the largest and most important city in the world. With about 800,000 residents, the city center, including the Roman Forum, featured magnificent marble temples, monuments and administrative buildings. In 410, when the so-called “barbarians,” Arian Christians, first sacked Rome, many of the structures began collapsing and their structural materials began being used in churches. But some of those structures survived because Christians repurposed them. The Pantheon, dedicated by Emperor Hadrian in about A.D. 26 to honor all the Roman gods, is the most famous of the preserved structures. Its 142-foot-diameter dome, constructed from unreinforced concrete, remains the largest such dome in the world. The Pantheon owes its longevity to its conversion to a church honoring Mary and the Martyrs in 609. A domed cylindrical temple of uncertain significance near the Roman Forum survived when it became the church of Santi Cosma e Damiano in 527. The Curia Julia, the Senate building in the Roman Forum begun by Julius Caesar in 44 B.C., survived because it became the Church of Sant’Adriano al Foro in A.D. 630. The Temple of Antoninus and Faustina, honoring

If you want to feel old, try explaining how we used to watch TV to a 10-yearold: “In days of yore, you couldn’t skip the commercials or GRAMMAR GUY pause the show. You just had to watch what was on when it was on. Yes, that’s how we watched TV in the 20th century.” You’ll feel like a complete fossil. We have some English words that seem like fossils, yet, like those of us born in the last century, they keep a death grip on life. These words are called “fossil words.” A fossil word tends to show up in a particular idiom or phrase, but we don’t use that word in any other context. Take the word “turpitude,” for instance. Outside of the phrase “moral turpitude,” you never see it. Turpitude has been fossilized with “moral,” and I don’t see it breaking free anytime soon. Although it means “to dish out,” the word “wreak” rarely shows up outside of the phrase “wreak havoc.” Occasionally, someone in an old medieval story wreaks

vengeance, but “wreak” is almost always joined at the hip with “havoc.” Be careful not to confuse “wreak” with “reek,” as these homophones could really trip you up (and leave you all stinky). Here’s another tricky fossil word that moonlights as a homophone: bated. It means “to diminish or lessen.” You never hear someone say, “Frank, you have really bated your waistline; you must be exercising!” Of course, we don’t hear that, because the word “bated” is fossilized next to the word “breath.” Frank waited with bated breath to see the number on the scale. Just don’t “bait” anyone’s breath; I’m not really sure what that would mean. In addition to the fossil words already discussed, you’ll also discover that “hither,” “amok,” “inclement,” “ado,” “eke,” “beck,” “champing” and “knell” have been cemented inside other phrases.

PRESENTS

The Roman Forum was built by Julius Caeser.

the deified Emperor Antonius Pius and his wife, Faustina, was built in 141 on a platform overlooking the Roman Forum. In the seventh century, it became a church honoring the martyrdom of Lawrence of Rome. Today, because of excavations of the forum, the entrance to the church is far above current ground level. Not all Roman structures survived by becoming churches. The exterior of the colonnaded temple honoring the deified Emperor Hadrian survived because it became a palace authorized by Pope Innocent XII in 1695.
