Saturday morning... DECIDE NOW!!


Participants will have the opportunity to attend three classes/workshops according to their tastes and curiosities; topics are wide ranging, far reaching, and fun.

We encourage you to take notes as ideas and impressions come during the classes/workshops. If you aren’t into taking notes, or didn’t get to experience all the options you would have liked, don’t fret.

The temple is my holy place. 
A temple is literally the house of the Lord. 
The Lord has always commanded his people to build 
temples, holy buildings in which worthy 
Saints perform sacred ceremonies and ordinances 
of the gospel for themselves and for the dead. 
The Lord visits his temples, and they are 
the most holy of all places of worship.
