Follow up on Temples
Hello every body it's Kieran again with a follow up on Temples. I went to the temple yesterday and it was fabulous. We were driving up to the temple and it is soo big and again just beautiful. Dad was able to come along for the trip too. I felt so happy and excited in the temple. Some of the other young women and temple workers helped me along the way and it was just a great trip. Info wise our group of young men and young women baptized and confirmed about 600 people. I got baptized for 10 and confirmed for what felt like 20. I can just imagine the people we have made happy because even though they did not join the church on Earth they can now. The only feeling i did not feel that could be summed up as happy was a little bored we ( me and four other girls) had to wait a while to be confirmed because we were the first to be baptized. But it was soo worth it . The temple is a beautiful place and I can't wait to go back. I am so glad that in our church people who are dead can have the opportunity to join and that we can go to the temple for peace. The work we do I know makes the people who want to join very happy. One more thing, as when we left it was dark outside and I looked up and I saw a magnificent building. Lights placed in just the right places to illuminate the whole building.The temple (again) was soo beautiful and I loved my trip to the temple. I REALLY can't wait to go back.

I'm glad you enjoyed yourself, Kieran. I'm thrilled that you have the gospel in your life and that you are worthy to go to the temple. You are starting your link in the chain of righteous women that your mother and I are proud to belong to. That chain started with my great grandmother Grandmother, Mary Jane Bryant Melton who joined the church in Kentucky when missionaries passed through the town of Hopkinsville. Then on to my grandmother Lillian Hamby Melton, who lived in Hopkinsville also---she raised all of her children with no organized church meetings---they ordered Sunday school manuals from Salt Lake, kept missionaries when they passed through, and went to conferences that visiting general authorities held. Then came Mimi, then me and then your Mom---now you. We have a plan to keep the chain unbroken. We are proud to have you join us! Love ya---P.S. You did a great job on your Easter dress!
We love you Kieran and are proud of you and your choices!
I'm so glad you had a great experience at the temple, Kieran! I am looking forward to our ward's temple trip, where it will be a few of the Beehive's first visit. Very exciting!
And like grandma said-You did a great job on your Easter dress! I think it is beautiful just like you!
love ya!
