Youth temple trip

What a beautiful day to visit the temple. I was overwhelmed by the spirit during our session as I looked upon all of the children. Such a strong group of young women and men we have.
We were greeted by a brother and sister with a very special message and a reminder that in every doorway stands an angel. While sitting in the waiting area, I met a sister that had driven 6 hours just to come to the temple. She is from Canada and is excited that this fall, a temple in her area will be built. Part of that special message that I just spoke about was the fact that we have people as far away as Alaska in our temple district. Just last year , the youth in their ward (after having saved a whole year to pay their way), were able to come to our temple. I felt so fortunate to have a temple so close.

I wish that I hadn't have been so wrapped up in meeting this other sister and had thought to get all of our youth together outside for a group photo.
These ferry photos and auto photos will just have to do.
Our youth is amazing and it was such a treat to spend time with them. Parents, good work!
