Salt Lake Temple Square in Salt Lake City, Utah - The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints

Today we had a home school field trip to Temple Square. The nice thing about home school is that you can mix education and religion any time; you can't do that at public school. :-) It was the most beautiful day ever and it was so refreshing being on the temple grounds. We had a little history lesson as we toured the Beehive House. The sister missionaries that took us on the tour were incredible and it reminded me of when I was a missionary. It was a sweet experience and the Spirit was strong! After the Beehive House we walked the grounds and went to a few visitor's center. All in all it was a blessed day and I had an increased gratitude for being a member of Jesus Christ's Church restored to the earth through the Prophet Joseph Smith. It made me smile to see all the "tourists" that were not from this country experiencing Temple Square and most likely feeling the Holy Ghost testify to the truthfulness of what the missionaries shared with them. Seeing all the "tourists" also made me think of the scripture  found in 2 Nephi Chapter 12 verse 2 which says : "...the Lord's house shall be established in the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills, and all nations shall flow unto it". I certainly saw people from all nations flowing into the gates of Temple Square today. You should experience it for yourself some day.  Enjoy the pictures!
