The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has been building temples since the 1830s. Temples are considered houses of God, places of holiness and peace separate from the world’s preoccupations. They provide a place where Church members can make formal promises and commitments to God to follow His son, Jesus Christ, and live righteous lives. God promises to bless and strengthen those who stay true to these sacred promises. Learn more about the temples located in North Texas below.

Many recognize Jackie Robinson as the man in the “42” movie who broke barriers by being the first African-American player in major league baseball. Craig Dalley of the Plano 7th congregation created an exhibit of Jackie Robinson memorabilia, which is currently on display at the Plano African-American Museum to tell the rest of the story. Beyond being a barrier breaker in baseball, he was a barrier breaker in business, including co-founding a bank to help revitalize Harlem. He was also a barrier breaker in civil rights, beginning with being court martialed during WWII for refusing to go to the back of the bus (11 years before Rosa Parks). Throughout his life, service was his guiding principle, because he believed that “a life is not important except in the impact it has on other lives.” Jackie’s life was guided by his Christian faith, and he believed church members could be the ultimate racial-barrier breakers by undoing “the sin of acknowledging the Fatherhood of God on Sunday and rejecting the brotherhood of man on Monday.” Mark your calendars & invite others to go along with you! 🤎
I really want to check this out!
What an inspiring exhibit!

Could these be zoomed? I have sisters who would benefit so much who can’t get around well. And it’s aimed for youth yeah? Do you think older groups would benefit as well?
In Heath TX, members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints have been challenged to complete 1,000 tasks relating to the temple, all in the month of January. 11 year old Aria, who has just joined the church's youth program, took on this unique opportunity with high spirits! She decided that she would challenge herself by asking her friends and family members what their favorite temple is, then 3D print one for each of them!
"It has been an incredible experience hearing everyone’s stories and their connection to the temple they chose. I have felt the spirit as I see all these small temples being printed and placed around my home," Aria says.
Aria has created 14 temples so far, and she plans on making many more! ... See MoreSee Less

I absolutely love this idea from such a young and inspiring young lady. I hope the love for temples continues to grow as she starts to attend them. My husband, Jonathan, and I love to travel to different temples and serve in each of them. I think I would love to have some in our home of the ones we’ve attended. That could be a great teaching moment as others come visit us. Thanks for sharing this young lady’s amazing story.
So cool! My husband does the same thing with friends, family members and ward members. We also love hearing their stories.
Super cool!
