    Absolutely breathtaking. my family and I have been traveling across country and this is the fourth temple during our road trip and once more the beauty and the energy is so inspiring.

    Passing through on a Sunday, so it was closed off and gated. But we were still able to see the beautiful structure and capture the spiritual feeling of the grounds and property in general.

    Stunning! Visiting from Hawaii and am impressed with the gold accents and stained glass windows! The peace and beauty on the inside of the temple brings the spirit of Christ when the chaos of the world is a constant in our lives. I loved just being on the temple grounds and admiring the craftsmanship and architecture of the building. Wonderful experience and grateful to have a temple in my hometown finally!

    This temple is quite simply, another heaven on earth! As Isaiah said in Isaiah chapter 2: "come, let us go up unto the mountain of the Lord’s house and learn of Him!" I learn of Him every time I am here. We invite all to join us here!
