Friend January 2024 “What Are Temples?” Temples are beautiful buildings where we can feel closer to Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ. Each temple has the words “The House of the Lord” written on it. This reminds us that the temple is holy and different from the rest of the world. Prophets have promised that we can feel peace inside the temple.

Friend March 2024 “What Is a Temple Recommend?”

Friend February 2024 “What Happens in Temples?” In the temple, we learn more about Heavenly Father, Jesus Christ, and the plan of salvation. We receive ordinances and make sacred covenants. We can also do this for those who died without making those covenants. We can feel the Holy Ghost and receive answers to our prayers. Prophets have promised that going to the temple will help us receive guidance for our lives.

Friend April 2024 “What Are Temple Baptisms?” Jesus Christ taught that we need to be baptized to live with God again (John 3:5). If a person dies without being baptized, someone can be baptized for them in the temple. Then the person who died can choose to accept the baptism. Prophets have promised that doing temple baptisms will help us love our ancestors more.

Friend May 2024 “What Are Ordinances and Covenants?” An ordinance is a sacred act done with priesthood authority, like baptism and the sacrament. A covenant is a promise you make with Heavenly Father through a priesthood ordinance. Ordinances and covenants help us grow closer to Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ. Someday you can make more covenants in the temple.

Friend June 2024 “What Is It Like inside the Temple?” Inside, the temple is a quiet, peaceful place. All around are beautiful paintings and places to sit and feel the Holy Ghost. There are rooms for different parts of temple worship, like a room with a baptism font and rooms for families to be sealed together. Prophets have promised that we can feel the Savior’s love inside His holy temples.

Friend July 2024 “What Are Temple Dedications?” When a new temple is finished, a prophet or apostle says an important prayer to dedicate, or bless, the temple. This prayer sets the temple apart to be a holy place where we can do God’s work. Prophets have promised that hundreds of temples will be dedicated to the Lord.

Friend August 2024 “Why Do We Call the Temple the House of the Lord?” Every temple has the words “The House of the Lord” near the entrance. The temple is the Lord’s house on earth, and it is filled with His power. Prophets have promised that the Lord will bring us miracles when we make the temple an important part of our life.

Friend September 2024 “What Does “Gathering Israel” Mean?” Gathering Israel means helping people make and keep covenants, or promises, with Heavenly Father. Inside the temple we can do this by being baptized for those who have died. Prophets have promised that as we help gather Israel, we will feel Jesus Christ’s love for us.

Friend October 2024 “What Is the Endowment?” When you are older, you can go inside the temple for a special ceremony called the endowment. During the endowment, we learn about God’s plan and Jesus Christ, and we promise to follow Them. The knowledge we receive and the covenants we make during the endowment are gifts from God. Prophets have promised that the endowment will give us more hope, comfort, and peace.

Friend November 2024 “What Is a Temple Sealing?” A temple sealing is an ordinance that binds families together forever.
