Today was the dedication of the Rexburg Temple. Allen and I had a special treat to be able to attend the 4:30 dedication session in the temple itself instead of at our stake center. We didn't ask for it, but we were happy to have the opportunity.
Things we were blessed with (They sound so superficial, I'm sorry.)
- Sitting inside the temple for a dedication session.
- Sitting in an ordinance room, instead of in the hallway or some strange corner for the dedication.
- Not having to sit on a folding chair, but instead, in movie theater style seating, and
- Having a big screen TV with surround sound to watch the session.
Here is a picture of the room we were in. It's beatiful and all of the painting is origional by a local artist. (both pictures for this blog were found on the church website.)
President Monson was excused from the 4:30 session, but it didn't matter, it was still a special occasion that Allen and I got to share. It was fun to fun into students that I have and currently am teaching. We were all so excited. Our community truly is blessed to have such a beacon on the hill reminding us of our Heavenly Father. I can't wait to do a session.
