I had the marvelous opportunity to see both Temple Celebrations Friday and Saturday. First, from the youth in the 25 stakes in the Draper Temple district, and Sat night, the youth from the 26 stakes in the Oquirrh Temple district. I loved seeing my grandchildren, Danielle and Braden, dance in this last one, Saturday night, for the Oquirrh Temple. I cannot say enough about it all. It was breathtaking with all of the music, the talent, the singing and dancing, and the exuberance of 7,000 youth each night. They were "on fire" with their love for the gospel. What a fabulous display, fitting for the House Of The Lord. The spirit filled the Conference Center, testifying to us of the truthfulness of temple worship. I am thrilled for the 14,000 wonderful young people who performed in this magnificent celebration. I know they will carry the memory and the spirit of this occasion in their hearts all through their lives. We are so blessed to live now when the gospel has been restored to the earth. I can hardly wait to tour the Oquirrh Temple, and also go there to serve occasionally. Early this year I set a goal to go at least twice a month and it has been a tremendous blessing in my life. I LOVE the Lord, I love his word, and am so privelaged to have made covenants in His holy Temple.

Thank you for your testimony mom! I never tire of hearing it. I wish I could have seen it...from what you tell me it was magnificent, and brought tears to my eyes just hearing about it. I feel blessed to have so many temples in our area!
You are so blessed to have so many temples close by. We travel 2-1/2 hours to get to the temple. It's always such a great blessing when we get to attend.
