Twin Falls Idaho Temple Dedication and Youth Cultural Celebration



Yes, that is President Thomas S. Monson and directly behind him in sunglasses, my wonderful father-in-law.

The highlight of our summer was the Twin Falls Idaho Temple Open House, Youth Cultural Celbration, and Dedication. As many of my family members have said, I can not express in words how amazing these experiences were. It only made sense in my mind that these were truly "tender mercies" from the Lord that I was experiencing.

"When words cannot provide the solace we need or express the joy we feel, when it is simply futile to attempt to explain that which is unexplainable, when logic and reason cannot yield adequate understanding...truly we are blessed by the tender mercies of the Lord and made mighty even unto the power of deliverance (see 1 Nephi 1:20)." -Elder Bednar

I will forever be grateful for the blessings of this amazing summer!
