Temple Recommend Holder

For (girls name)

"I believe that the

most important single thing

you will ever do in this world is to

marry the right person,

at the right place,

by the right authority."

Each girl will be give a clear cellophane bag tied up with ribbons. Inside is a small bottle of wedding bubbles, a small white box wrapped in pink tuleing(?) ribbon with the Temple Recommend Holder inside the box.

I’m doing a play on the word "Recommend" and will pretty much follow the lesson, as suggested by some of you. Then I’ll give them a handout done up with a wedding border.  These quotes will be front and back of the handout.

... That you "spend your life on something that will outlast it." William James.

... That you make wise eternal decisions, for President Monson said,

"When the time for decision arrives, the time for preparation is past"

... That you aspire to attend the Lord’s university, the temple.

That your "tender heart be filled with what He wants you to be taught.

That your testimony burn within as you walk where Jesus walked."

... That you "never make a choice that leaves you

waiting outside the house of God.

For if you do, you may find yourself and those you love outside

throughout eternity.

It is my testimony that nothing,

nothing could compensate for this.

The greatest of all blessings."

A Temple Marriage Is Only The Beginning

"I picture you coming to the temple to be sealed for time and for all eternity. I yearn to talk to you abut the sacred sealing ordinance, but this we do not do outside those sacred walls. The transcendent nature of all that is conferred upon us at the marriage alter is so marvelous it is worth all the waiting and all the resisting. . . .

"But this is not the fulfillment of the story of love. In the book, or the play, on the stage, the curtain comes down here. But it is not so in real love. This is not the conclusion — only the beginning."
