Temple Facts

The Preston England Temple was the second temple built in the British Isles, following the London England Temple (1958).

"Prepare now for the temple, the mountain of the Lord. Never allow the goal of the temple to be out of your sight. Walk into His presence in purity and virtue, and receive His blessings—even 'all that he hath.'"
—Elaine S. Dalton
