Show and Tell
We love to see the temple!
About 120 members and friends of the Valrico Ward, Brandon Florida Stake, USA, visited the Orlando Florida Temple. Before they went, the activity-day girls went to the family history center to learn how to use FamilySearch. Dressed in their Sunday best, 48 Primary children visited the temple grounds while their parents attended the temple.
While the Ogden Utah Temple was being rebuilt, Primary children from the Evanston 6th Ward, Wyoming, USA, used sugar cubes to build a model of the temple. They learned about how families can be together forever. The children are so excited to have the temple open again!
Preston and Jacob C., ages 11 and 9, Michigan, USA, built a model of the Detroit Michigan Temple.
The largest photo in our home is of the temple. Next are pictures of our family and my parents when they were married in the temple. Someday I want to be married in the temple too, like my mama and papa.

I’m trying to be like Jesus by helping take care of my sister, Kira, who has autism. A lot of kids think she is weird, but I don’t think that. When I play with her, I help her go down the waterslide and do many other things. I love her so much! I do those things because I know Jesus loves her. That is how I’m trying to be like Jesus.

My grandpa is not a member of the Church. My mom took him to the temple open house. My grandpa’s favorite room was the celestial room. I hope he will join the Church soon. I love him.
