The Mountain of the Lord’s House

And it shall come to pass in the last days, when the mountain of the Lord’s house shall be established in the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills, and all nations shall flow unto it.  And many people shall go and say, Come ye, and let us go up to the mountain of the Lord, to the house of the God of Jacob;Continue Reading

Getting Back to the Temple

So I don’t get out much. Like, hardly at all. It’s hard to leave my son, even to go to the temple. But you’ve had them, right? Times where you have a really intense question that needs to be answered, and you feel that within the walls of the temple is the only place youContinue Reading

Link Within the Chain

(Chain pictures found here) Long ago in High School Seminary a wise teacher told me something that has always stuck. “The temple covenants we make are like a link in a long chain” He went on to explain this chain as a means to being linked to our ancestors and posterity for eternity. I’ve recalledContinue Reading

Temple Goals

The reason why I haven’t written another post this month is because of some major writers block. I haven’t had any amazing enlightening experiences, visions, or anything that I thought would benefit anyone of you great women. I must admit that I have been a bit intimidated by your posts. They have been great andContinue Reading

A Question Answered

I received this question on The American Homemaker. I thought I’d share my answer here also: “I read your blog on the temple you visited and you asked for questions so here goes. I guess I am not sure why would a temple being restored make it possible for you to live forever with yourContinue Reading

My Testimony of the Temple

Being here in England, I realize over and over how lucky I was during my time at BYU when the temple was a 5-minute drive away, or back home in Georgia when it was *shudder* an hour’s drive!Here it’s a 2 1/2 hour drive (if you have a lead foot) to the nearest temple inContinue Reading

All Roads Lead to the Temple

Our Stake Presidency has given our Stake the theme of “All Roads Lead to the Temple” this year. I love this and know how important the temple is to our eternal life. Without it, we can not be together as families or dwell with our Father In Heaven & His Son. I’m setting a goalContinue Reading

New Temple Dedicated in Draper, Utah

Living just over the mountain from the new Draper Utah Temple, we have been watching the construction one step at a time from the groundbreaking in July 2006 to the hoisting of the majestic, gold leafed Angel Moroni in July of 2008.  I stayed up until midnight the night before reservations were available online soContinue Reading

What Was Missing?

Last week I flew from London to Salt Lake City to spend Thanksgiving week with my family and friends. I was so excited to be back in Utah – where I went to school, and where I have such happy memories! It was a difficult trip to make, though. Because of my panic attacks andContinue Reading

Come to the Temple, But Not for Endowments!

Being a temple worker I am blessed to be able to listen to the ordinances over and over and I even get the chance to memorize them. I have only been there for five weeks and I’m currently working on my initiatory memorization. Part of the deal is to be a patron for lots andContinue Reading
