Tickets for Temple Distict Open House

We have received an important clarification regarding reservations for the General Public Open House of the Temple.

From April 20th - May 3rd, reservations are available for members in the Temple District by calling the Church Reservation System. We had assumed that they would also be available on the internet, but found that a telephone call is the only source for obtaining them before they are available to general Church membership on May 4th.

The phone numbers to call for reservations are:

801-240-7645 or 800-521-5105

March Bishopric Message

Temples, The House of the Lord

It is amazing to see the building of two new temples here in the Salt Lake Valley. Many have taken the opportunity to attend the Draper Temple open house. On Mar.22nd the Draper Temple will be dedicated, and all who are eight years old and older and are worthy, have the opportunity to attend the dedication via satellite at our Stake Center.

The Oguirhh Mountain Temple open house will begin June 1st and go through July 31st. What a great opportunity for us to attend and serve during the open house for our new temple. The work of the Lord is rolling forth and we are witnessing that first hand.

“The Lord has always commanded his people to build temples, holy buildings in which worthy Saints perform sacred ceremonies and ordinances of the gospel for themselves and for the dead. The Lord visits his temples, and they are the most holy of all places of worship.”

It is our hope that we can all partake of the blessings of the temple. These events that surround us at this time don’t come along too often in ones lifetime. May we take our families to these great events that will build our testimonies of this great work.
