HOLINESS TO THE LORD
THE HOUSE OF THE LORD

"In order that this work may be done, we must have Temples in which to do it; and what I wish to say to you, my brethren and sisters, is that the God of heaven requires us to rise up and build them, that the work of redemption may be hastened. Our reward will meet us when we go behind the veil."
—Wilford Woodruff
