Brigham City Temple

Last Saturday the 18th was the opening day for the Open House for the new Brigham City Utah Temple. I was able to get Andrew and I tickets. I must say it is beautiful. It is also amazing to think it was built in two years. Where as the Salt Lake Temple took 40 years. As a child my grandparents lived about 3 blocks away and me, my sisters, my cousins and aunts would walk down to the Central School that used to occupy the site and play for hours there on the playground for hours. I think that is where I got my love for tetherball. It is amazing how the Lord prepares an area for a temple. The Central School sat across Main Street from the Brigham Tabernacle for many years. Then it was decided to tear down the school. The site sat vacant for a few years and now there is temple there.

THEN:NOW:

Of course the then is not the way I remember the school, but I am sure President Packer remembers it.
