ZONE TEMPLE ATTENDANCE

We have had a busy and exciting week,

the activities of which will continue through

Tuesday of next week.

 

It has been the week of Zone Temple Meetings.

 

We have six zones in our mission.

Four zones are English speaking, and two zones are Spanish speaking.

 

Including a week ago Friday, then Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday

and next Tuesday, our Zone Meetings are as follows:

 

Be at the beautiful Chicago Temple by 8:30

Attend the 9:00 Session

Participate in and watch sealings  in the temple

Pictures outside.

Lunch at the mission home

A meeting wherein principles of temple worship

are discussed and testimonies are born.

 

As a senior couple, we have been able to participate in many ways. 

We have helped make cookies and salads, have prepared and served

lunches at the Mission Home, enjoyed (VERY MUCH) the company

of our missionaries including the senior missionaries,

managed the office while others participated,

taken lots of pictures,

solved problems in the background,

and best of all..........

attended the temple with one of the zones

and had sealings done for ancestors by the missionaries.

 

 

Our young and senior missionaries are thrilled

to have this opportunity to

attend the temple with each other and

our  Mission President and his wife.

 

It is a time to review and remember how much our

Heavenly Father loves each of his children individually,

those in this world and on the other side,

and provides them a way to return to Him

and dwell with Him and our families

FOREVER !!!!

 

This has been a spiritual

and a social highlight of our mission.   

 

Sorting pictures to add to this post was difficult to say the least.

Following are many, many pictures, with more to follow after

Tuesday.  Hope you find someone in these pictures you know.
