St George Temple

To finish off my parents visit, we headed down to St George for my Cousin Laura's wedding.

Ryan was not able to Join us on this trip. Sadly his Uncle passed away this week, so he was headed to Las Vegas with his family for the funeral. The kids and I missed having him with us. Especially when we were doing the tourist things.

We arrived in St George Thursday night.

Friday we started our day by visiting the St George Temple Grounds.

We went to the visitors center first, were we watched a presentation on the importance of an eternal family.

The kids noticed that there are a few similar things at this visitors center, like the Statue of Christ and the map of all of the important places Christ went during his ministry.


I really enjoyed going into the annex where they had the history of the St George Temple. I learned a few new things. I did not know that they built The St George temple on a swamp. I also did not know that when it was first built the prophet lived in it when he was in town.

Visiting the temple was a fun way to start off our trip. It is a beautiful temple full of history.
