Temples are especially significant to members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. They are considered houses of God where Church members make sacred covenants with Heavenly Father and learn more about the mission of Jesus Christ.

Emily Hill would go through more challenges than her 20-year-old self setting sail to join the Saints ever thought she would. But those experiences helped her write prose that would inspire millions.

More than a year ago, author Gerald N. Lund was preparing to speak at a fireside when organizers requested he set aside time to address a question that kept coming up in interviews and discussions.

The location of a new temple of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Auckland, New Zealand, has been announced by President Russell M. Nelson during a Tuesday evening devotional in the country’s largest city. “Today I am pleased to announce that the new temple will be built in Auckland on Redoubt Road," said President Nelson. The temple will be on a hill between the Missionary Training Center and the Redoubt stake center. President Nelson said the temple will be a '"two-story building with a granite exterior. Its light and beauty will be highly visible."

I'm a white, middle class, married with two kids, Christian, college-educated, home-owning woman, and I am a minority.

My name is Euan Maxton I’m 19 and I live in Dundee, Scotland. Being a member of our church is a big part of my life as it helps me to connect with Heavenly Father and others who share a testimony of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. I enjoy staying active. I like running which helps me to be more competitive when playing (real) football which I play often. I especially enjoy coming together as a stake and competing against each other. Currently I am working at Asda which is our equivalent to Walmart in Scotland. However, this year my hope is to move forward to University here in Scotland or if the opportunity arises to go and serve a full time mission. I enjoy serving with the missionaries in our ward. I am staying hopeful that as I continue to be faithful I will be prepared to go and serve the Lord.

In working as a religious educator for almost four decades, I have been delighted to witness a significant rise in what might be called scriptural literacy or gospel scholarship among the young people of the Church. This is a tribute to devoted mothers and fathers, advisers and teachers, seminary and institute instructors. Our members are simply more capable and adept at utilizing the standard works in finding answers to their questions, seeking divine guidance, and explaining or defending the teachings of the restored gospel to those not of our faith.
