Vancouver temple open house

This past Saturday we were able to attend the open house of the Vancouver temple of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. The temple is located in Langley, BC. First we watched a short video about the history of temples, dating back to Old Testament times, and the history of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in the Vancouver area. Then we were able to walk through the Vancouver temple. It was beautiful! The attention to detail is truly amazing.

Pictures are not permitted inside, but here are a few shots of us outside after our tour.

Vancouver Temple

Yesterday we went up to the new temple for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Vancouver (Langley), British Columbia. It isn't open yet but the outside is complete. The angel Moroni (the gold guy at the top) was put on on March 10. The open house, which is free and open to anyone, will be April 9-24.

Kaylin LOVES temples and was so excited to see the one in Vancouver. We are going to attend the open house next month and Kaylin is looking forward to going inside. We are so happy for the people (including my parents :-)), who will have a temple closer to them.

P.S. Happy Pi Day! (3.14)
