Come to the Temple!

Everything we do in our church points to the temple. Not only are temple ordinances necessary for exaltation, there are incredible blessings that come to us in this earth life from regular, sincere worship in the temple. We encourage you to look up and study a talk entitled "Honorably Hold a Name and a Standing" given by Elder David Bednar at the April 2009 General Conference (May 2009 Ensign). We have decided as a presidency to commit to a regular temple attendance schedule in order to have the strength and other promised blessings of the temple in our lives. The desire for these blessings is not just for our own lives, but it extends to each of you. We invite you to join us as often as possible in the temple. As we dedicate ourselves to regular temple worship, we will increase our worthiness for blessings that will support and strengthen us against the raging adversity that surrounds us. If you are not a current temple recommend holder, we invite you to do whatever it takes to become worthy of one. Please let us know how we can help you to achieve this.
