On Saturday, we were able to visit the Jordan River Temple to do baptisms. It was the first time in over a year that we had been able to attend the temple. It was WONDERFUL, but also it made me so sad to leave, not knowing when we would be back...but knowing that unless temples open more fully, it will be at least August before that happens. I long to be back in the temple.
It was nice to be welcomed to the temple and to feel the spirit there. And we were the only ones in the baptistry, other than temple workers. So we were escorted to the bathrooms, escorted to the font, and escorted to the confirmation room. We were warmly welcomed. Everyone was so kind. As we were leaving, the temple president was there and thanked us for coming and for being in the temple. I felt encircled in love and peace and the spirit. But oh how I wished I could stay longer. Even if I could have just sat in the baptistry's chapel for a bit. I just didn't want to leave.
