Temples of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints are considered houses of God, a place of holiness and peace separate from the preoccupations of the world. They provide a place where Church members make formal promises and commitments to God. They are also the place where the highest sacraments of the faith occur — the marriage of couples and the "sealing" of families for eternity. Temples serve as the only place where ceremonies such as baptism and eternal marriage can be performed on behalf of those who have died. Temples point Latter-day Saints to Jesus Christ and their eventual life with Him.
Beautiful place. The grounds are peaceful to walk around.

I've been going here regularly since 2009. You have to have a recommend to get inside but the grounds are open to anyone. It is a sacred place so enjoy quietly, but feel free to visit. The landscaping is always lovely and there are mangers at Christmas. This is where members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints go to make covenants with God and perform ordinances for deceased ancestors. There's also a distribution center here for those needing to purchase temple or covenantal clothing. Also sweet supplies for Family Home Evening like coloring books and Tabernacle Choir albums. Materials are available in Spanish.
