Cardston 5th Ward
Dear 5th Ward Members,
We have an exciting day planned full of activities for the entire ward on July 18th with a focus on the temple and coming closer to Christ. We encourage you to participate in this wonderful event.
Leading up to the day it would be wonderful if everyone takes time to prepare by doing some family history work or learning more about the temple. This can be done during family home evenings or during personal and family scripture study.
2:45 Youth meet at the temple to do baptisms for the dead, bring your own names or someone else's from the ward. If you have grandchildren or family visiting they are welcome to come, just make sure they have recommends. If there are any adults who would like to join you are most welcome to come as well.
4:30 Primary children will tour the visitors center, Sunday Dress. There may be a short visit to the entry of the temple to see the fountain.
4:45 - 6:15 Drop-in, come when available. Dinner at the Temple Street Chapel for all Ward Members. There will be Subway sandwiches and other refreshments. The Temple and Family History Consultants will have various booths with activities for all ages. During this time we will also have photographers available at the courtyard of the temple and at the "I love to see the temple" bench to take pictures of families.
Individuals may choose to go do some sealing and initiatory at this time. Names baptized by the youth will be available at the desk for initiatory, as well as for endowments.
6:45 Ward Endowment Session, arrive at 6:15
Following the Endowment Session there will be a dessert social at the Church for the adults.
This event will culminate with a brief slideshow of the day's activities at our 5th Sunday Lesson on July 30th, where we will learn more about our temple covenants.
We encourage and invite all to participate. If you are not able to attend any of our scheduled events that day, please find another time to visit the temple and participate.
With Love, 5th Ward Council
