“It is the house of the Lord, and what stands out is the feeling of closeness to our Heavenly Father and our Savior. The focus on the Savior and the peace and quiet, that and light that you feel in what can be a dark world for many people,” said Elder Bennett.

“Temples are where we make sacred covenants with God, and in return, He blesses us with an extra measure of His love and mercy and his capacity enhancing power,” said President Johnson.
