Yesterday the newly finished Twin Falls Temple was dedicated by our Prophet Thomas S. Monson. It is the fourth Temple to be built in Idaho. This particular Temple will serve the members of 14 stakes in and around the Magic Valley.Young Men and Women from all of the different stakes participated in a Youth Cultural Celebration the night before the dedication. These stakes prepared for 4 months training the young people to sing and dance. My own children: Brent, Sarah and Jacob participated as dancers!
