Oquirrh Mountain Temple




We had the opportunity to go through the open house to the Oquirrh Mountain Temple. We went we a couple really good friends and had the most amazing time. We are so lucy to leave here in Utah were we have several temple that we can get to with in minutes. One of the little boys that was with us named Noah, who is only 2 was soaking everything up. He kept asking questions and pointing to pictures of Christ. He even asked after we left and we were driving home, he would see a church and said "That is my temple and I love the temple" how close they still are the veil is so thin for these little ones. The other day we found a flier of the temple and he asked where the picture of Jesus was on the flier, he just seemed to remember. He also remembers what the swimming pool was for. We have taken our kids to two of the open houses, and Rachael kept asking me where her room was, I said what are you talking about "Your room" what she wanted was the Sealing room that has the mirrors so she can see herself forever. It is amazing the things they remember. What an amazing experience. Thank you to the Gillmans and the Rodriguez's families for going with us
