I have been showing some photos of the Mormon Temple that I encountered on my walk from the San Jose Marriott, focusing on the traditional Angel Moroni that sits atop the temple. This is a photo of the Mormon Church that is tucked behind the temple.
Only Mormons who have been baptized and are otherwise prepared and qualified to go inside the temple are allowed in the temple, but everyone can attend the church.
This week, in recognition of St. Patrick's Day on Monday, we have posted photos of Dublin, Ireland, on our Viva la Voyage travel photo site.
I remember visiting Temple Square in Salt Lake and having this explained to us. We could visit the Tabernacle but not the Temple. The young woman who took us around was a New Zealander doing her missionary tour in SLC. Struck me as odd.
ReplyDeleteThe Mormons are certainly very dedicated.
