Layton Temple Dedication

From the beginning, God's people were commanded to build temples. even when the people were living in poverty.


Through the ordinances of the temple, you can draw on the greatest powers of Jesus Christ that are available on Earth


There was a video presentation from President Russell M Nelson. He promised that if we make the temple the center of our lives, we will receive strength.


 Doctrine and Covenants 128:15

15 And now, my dearly beloved brethren and sisters, let me assure you that these are principles in relation to the dead and the living that cannot be lightly passed over, as pertaining to our salvation. For their salvation is necessary and essential to our salvation, as Paul says concerning the fathers—that they without us cannot be made perfect—neither can we without our dead be made perfect.

 The temple is not about the building. it is about the connection with the savior and the power he gives us.
