I Love to See the Temple
We visited the Draper Temple Open House and found peace, inspiration and aspirations were found here.
A definite treat to see the temple before it was dedicated.
THE 129th temple
The symbolism and reverence were definitely felt. The exalted and reverent state were expressed. The rooms represented contentment, inner harmony, and peace. I loved the seagull lilies that were placed throughout the building in the tapestry, ceilings, furniture, etc., it reminded me of the Saints and the sacrifices that they made, the same pioneers who left their homeland and traveled by ship, by wagon, by handcart, and on foot to gather with other Latter-day Saints. Everything in the temple testifies of the divinity and sacrifice and teaches us to follow the example of our Saviors love and service.
Chad took the kids to the Distribution Center to pick out their favorite temple. They each picked out where they would love to go...Those pictures are placed inside frames and stand as a reminder in their rooms of where they too can go someday.
