BYU-Idaho Alumni Magazine Highlights the Temple

Rexburg Idaho Temple

Rexburg Idaho Temple

Our friend Ferreira has pointed out that the Spring 2009 issue of the BYU-Idaho Alumni Magazine has a temple theme, and is entitled “In the Shadow of a Temple.” Having just recently received a temple of their own, the new Rexburg Idaho Temple, they thought it appropriate to dedicate this issue on temple themes.

The issue includes reprints of some great articles from Val R. Christensen (Rexburg Temple President), the late Truman G. Madsen, Kim B. Clark (President of BYU-Idaho), Leon Parson (one of the mural painters for the Rexburg Temple), and Elder John H. Groberg, among others.

It looks like a fantastic issue about the temple.  I look forward to reading this.  You can see the list of articles here:

In the Shadow of a Temple

Thanks Ferreira!

Another Video Preview of the New Twin Falls Temple

July 11, 2008 by Bryce Haymond 2 Comments

Here is another media preview of the new Twin Falls Temple that comes from Local News channel 8 in Idaho Falls and Pocatello Idaho. It gives more details concerning the murals in the garden room, painted by Rexburg artist Leon Parson. Parson skillfully included the Idaho Shoshone Falls in the depiction of the creation in these murals. Please forgive the commercial at the beginning of the clip.

Video Inside the New Twin Falls Temple

July 10, 2008 by Bryce Haymond 5 Comments

The Church has produced a short video for the media describing the newest temple of the Church in Twin Falls, Idaho, and the open house that will be occurring there from July 11th through August 16th, 2008 (8am-8pm, except Sundays and Mondays after 6pm).

This video comes from Times-News at MagicValley.com.  It is introduced by Elder William Walker, member of the First Quorum of the Seventy, and includes some commentary from the construction company (Big D Construction), Brent Nielson (Chairman of the Twin Falls Temple Committee), and some other members of the Church.  It also includes some video of the inside of the temple.  Typically the Church publishes photos of the interior, but this is the first time I’ve seen short video clips produced in connection with the opening of a new temple, which include the celestial room, baptistery, ordinance rooms, sealing rooms, and lobby.  The temple is a beautiful sacred place.

Inside an LDS (Mormon) Temple – Rexburg, Idaho

January 20, 2008 by Bryce Haymond 3 Comments

What the inside of an LDS (Mormon) temple looks like is not a secret. Before the dedication of each new temple, they are opened up to the public in a several week-long open house. Many thousands of people are freely allowed inside to see the different rooms and feel the Spirit of the Lord that resides there. Pictures of the outside and inside are published by the Church. Then the building is closed to the public and is dedicated to the Lord and set apart for the work of performing gospel ordinances for the salvation of the living and the dead, the Atonement of Jesus Christ making it all possible.

See a short video inside the newest temple of the Church in Rexburg, Idaho, compiled from published photographs from the LDS Church.
