What Is the Endowment?

When you are older, you can go inside the temple for a special ceremony called the endowment. During the endowment, we learn about God’s plan and Jesus Christ, and we promise to follow Them. The knowledge we receive and the covenants we make during the endowment are gifts from God. Prophets have promised that the endowment will give us more hope, comfort, and peace.
