The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints builds temples all around the world where faithful members go to learn more of Jesus Christ and his plan, receive ordinances for themselves, and perform vicarious work for their deceased ancestors. These temples are beautifully constructed both inside and out. They are designed to direct our thoughts heavenward and seal families together for eternity. The redemptive work that is performed here is not to be found anywhere else on the earth. All people are invited to experience for themselves the grandeur and blessings of temple work by qualifying themselves to enter the House of the Lord. In the meantime, I'll be taking you through the A to Z of our temples.
JORDAN RIVER UTAH TEMPLE

This is the stunningly beautiful Jordan River Utah Temple. I just love the architecture, the geometry of the shapes, and how the light and shadow plays nicely with the single white colour.

| A chapel at the Jordan River Utah Temple. There are no services held in chapels in temples. Rather, the chapel here is a place of quiet reflection while waiting for an endowment session to begin. Gentle church music plays in the background and sets of scriptures are available. Once everyone is in and it is time for the session to start, a temple worker will usher everyone through the temple to the Endowment Room. |
The Jordan River Utah Temple was recently renovated and re-dedicated. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints often closes temples for a period of time for renovation/refurbishment as we try to maintain the perfect condition of these houses of worship. More will be explained in the video below:
