p-day to the temple

We had a nice p-day this week.  We couldn't get a car until the afternoon (but I am so glad that we are able to sign up for a car and usually get one when we need it without having to hire a taxi or have our own car).  We went to the temple and because of traffic could not get there until 3:00 so we did sealing of families for 2 hours.  It was wonderful and I felt like we helped many people on the other side of the veil. We then went grocery shopping and to dinner at Chile's .  When we got home I listened to a conference talk by Elder Russel M. Nelson who spoke about a personal experience he had had  when two sisters came to him from the other side of the veil.  He said he could not see them physically but he felt their presence and he heard their spiritual pleading.  They said.  "Brother Nelson, we are not sealed to anyone! Can you help us?  These were two sisters he had operated on as a young heart surgeon who had both died.  He told the story of how he went to their 88 year old father and on his knees asked him to prepare himself to go to the temple to be sealed with his deceased wife and then be sealed as a couple to their children.  This man had never been to the temple, but he agreed to do this and with the help of many people including his bishop and stake president and over much time at last President Nelson went to the temple with him and then performed the necessary ordinances for the two sisters and their younger brother. They are now a together family for eternity.  Families can be together forever but the  earthly ordinances must be performed in the temple. I was glad to be able to help in the temple with some families.  I hope our missionaries have a vision of the temple in mind when they teach non members of the church.  This is the purpose they serve...to bring people and families to the temple to make covenants with God.
