HOLINESS TO THE LORD
THE HOUSE OF THE LORD

"Each temple building is an inspiration, magnificent and beautiful in every way, but the temple building alone does not bless. The endowed blessings and divine functions—come through obedience and faithfulness to priesthood authority and covenants made."
—James E. Faust
