Dan & Chan Forever

My sister, Chantelle and her husband, Dan

were sealed in the temple last Saturday!

Thank you for letting us be part of this wonderful time for you both! We love you and hope that you feel a closer bond with each other. I feel that my temple marriage and sealing have helped give strength and comfort to me not just in times of trial, but in everyday life and the myriad of choices to make. I believe that there is more to this life than living just for today.

I want to live for the eternity to come.

I look forward to having my husband by my side.

To any who may have questions, and wonder "Why these temples?" Our Prophet Gordon B. Hinckley had a very nice answer. Here is an selection from his talk posted on www.lds.org

"Was there ever a man who truly loved a woman, or a woman who truly loved a man, who did not pray that their relationship might continue beyond the grave? Has a child ever been buried by parents who did not long for the assurance that their loved one would again be theirs in a world to come? Can anyone believing in eternal life doubt that the God of heaven would grant His sons and daughters that most precious attribute of life, the love that finds its most meaningful expression in family relationships? No, reason demands that the family relationship shall continue after death. The human heart longs for it, and the God of heaven has revealed a way whereby it may be secured. The sacred ordinances of the house of the Lord provide for it."
