Temples
 In order to enter the LDS Temples one must be be a member of the LDS Church in good standing. We have an interview with
our Bishop or one of his councilors once every two years to receive a recommend to attend any temple throughout the world.
Why Mormons Build Temples?
As you have visited temples erected by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints or as you have seen photographs of them, have you

These temples are different from all other buildings in the world. Beautiful structures have been erected by other peoples, of course, and
some of them have been called temples, but none have either the purpose or the functions of the Mormon temples.

Redemption of the dead
Vicarious ordinance: A religious ordinance performed by a living person in behalf of one who is

not bound by any law when they are out of the world. READ MORE...
