Taylor received his endowment here at Jordan River Temple, not long before he left on his mission.
August 6, 2021
Today I was able to attend the Jordan River Temple. Intiatories are still hard to get into, so I was able to only able to do 1 endowment and 6 sealing. It was a much welcomed reprieve as Sam was in a bad place all week, and I'm still working on finding peace amidst his storms.
Jordan River is one of the largest temples, and it was completely redone inside back in 2018. Another fun fact about Jordan River is that it is one of 5 temples that has the angel Moroni holding the gold plates.
When I did the sealing the sealer said that the Executive Director of the Temple Department said a couple of years ago that as of then it takes 15 years to for a male endowment to be completed once submitted to the temple. On top of that, it increases by a year, every year. So names submitted now supposedly take 17 years now. Let's hope with temples being closed for a year with Covid we will see a resurgence of temple attendance. I know I'm doing more temple work than I ever have!
