Out of Ashes

We live just a few blocks away from this beautiful House of the Lord, and we've been so blessed to have watched its construction over the past couple of years. We were also so lucky to be able to be there together as a family a few times throughout the open house! It is amazing and has become such a treasure to us. 

"What a cherished piece of history we celebrate...like a phoenix rising from the ashes, a temple on the ground and out of the loving memory of our beloved tabernacle."
-Elder Jeffrey R. Holland

This temple has become a symbol to me: through the fire and ashes of our own lives, Heavenly Father can transform us into something magnificent, beautiful and consecrated.
