Temple with Lindsay

Today was one of those "special days' that we will always remember. We were able to join Lindsay as she attended the temple for the first time to receive her Endownment and come to know the Lord better by making sacred covenenats with Him in His Holy House. She has been preparing for this day for many years, and has put in a lot of time these past few weeks reading and studying about God's plan for His children here on earth, so that she could better understand the ordinance she would be participating in today.  

I love seeing these two walking together discussing the importance of the temple.

Welcome to the House of the Lord

It was such a tender mercy that Lindsay was able to go to the temple today.  Our area, and the world, has just started to shut down due to the effects of the Coronavirus, which is spreading quickly.  Lindsay had planned to be in Colorado this weekend for a lacrosse tournament, but it was cncelled at the last minute due to Covid-19 health concerns.  As soon as she ;earned she would not be traveling, she called the Provo City Center Temple to see if they had an openings that she could go through the temple for the first time this weekend.  There was 1 appointment available and she took it.  

Upon our arrival, we learned that today would be the last day the temples in Utah will be open due to the impending pandemic. Such a blessing to get to be in the Lord's Holy House this day.

So glad Aubrey could come down and be a part of theis speical day with Lindsay.  I can not say enough about the goodness of Sisters!  These girls are such good friends and supporters of one another.  They always know that their sisters have their backs and will do anything for them. They love them for who they are and see the big picture in how they treat and care for one another. 

They are definintely some of Gods greatest blessings to each other.

Oh how I love this girl!  She has a heart of gold and is known for her kind disposition and gentle heart. 

Temples teach us about God, his son Jesus Christ and prepare us to one day be in their presence. The ordinances that take place within temples allow family's to be sealed together forever and for individuals to receive additional power and strength as we go through the trials and triumphs of this mortal life.

Grateful to the Lord for this opportunity to be in the tenple with Lindsay today!
