That's awesome EP...but curious..be sealed to who? Is this also another announcement?

Hey, we'll be passing each other on the road. I leave Friday late afternoon for Kirtland (a SA conference there). I'll be going thu Columbus! I'll wave when I pass the exit for the temple, so be sure to look for me!

Congrats!

(wondering the same thing as Pam....is this a sneak attack announcement of something else????)

LOL! Yeah, you're a little young for this old-timers conference. We get free Geritol at the door and they have reserved hundreds of rocking chairs for us! :D

I'm so excited for you EP! You are going to love it so much!

I know you mean well honor, but people used to say this to me a lot too, and when I went I hated it-I was even traumatised by it. (Endowment, not baptisms) I felt more like a freak as everyone told me how good it was. If I didnt have that, I might have been able to make more sense of the situation.

Oh please. This is a thread by a young woman who is excited about going to the temple for the first time to do baptisms for the dead. Let's not turn this into a "temple endowment session traumatized me" thread. Those of us who have been around for awhile are very aware of your thoughts on temple going.

Just don't open you spiritual eyes when in the temple...;)

Or as it is stated in the movie called Sixth Sense, "I SEE DEAD PEOPLE." :lol:

Sorry...I have my moments but congrats in serving the dead.

I think the point is that the temple endowment is a sacred ordinance, and using slang or other lesser language for it is degrading to those who hold it in high esteem. It's bad enough that we have anti's coming here holding sacred things up to mockery that it would behoove those of us who are of the faith to try to show it the respect it deserves.
