Families can be sealed together for eternity in temples. 18 years ago, Charles & Alyssa Woodbury were sealed in the Orlando Temple on March 8, 2008. That same day, their friends Omar & Kate Spilsbury were also sealed in the Orlando Temple.
Alyssa Woodbury said, “Attending the temple helps to center my mind and heart on the eternal perspective of our journeys. The temple brings us closer to the Savior through our Covenants we make within and even just through our lives in accordance to the requirements of the temple recommend itself. Attending the temple brings me so much peace and renews my soul.”
Both couples live in Jacksonville and will soon be able to worship in the Jacksonville Temple when it is finished. What a blessing it will be once both temples open! Both beautiful temples will host public open houses before they are dedicated. Come and see the house of the Lord!
