Nauvoo Illinois Temple - Dedicated June 27, 2002

Nauvoo Illinois Temple - Dedicated June 27, 2002
The Nauvoo Temple was originally built by the early saints through much hardship and sacrifice. In May of 1846, the temple was dedicated and became the second operating temple of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Unfortunatly a few years later in 1848, the temple was destroyed by fire. In April of 1999 President Gordon B. Hinckley, prophet of the church, announced that the temple would be rebuilt. Following its reconstruction, the Nauvoo Illinois Temple was dedicated on June 27, 2002, making it the 113th operating temple in the church.

Pictures!!!!!

I sent home pictures to my mom and here are a few that I wanted to share.
My companion Sister Babbitt and I.  We realized we had the same shirt so we dressed alike one day and took a picture.  You can't see our skirts but they are similar as well.
 This tree is said to smell like cream soda, which indeed it does.
