Today marks a special milestone in our branch and in the lives of two of our wonderful sisters in the branch. Sisters He Zhusheng and Jin Yi-Qun went to the temple for the first time to receive their own endowment ordinances. Their achievements were several months in the making. To accommodate the special for Sister He, we requested a special Mandarin endowment session, which the temple presidency were gracious enough to approve and set up.
So, at 12:30pm 10 sisters and 1 brother from our branch, 3 other sisters and 1 other brother, and Elder Mecham and his companion participated in the endowment ordinance and supported Sisters He and Jin in their living endowments. It was inspirational to see these two sisters prepare themselves for the temple and to receive this special ordinance. Furthermore, they are planning on doing sealings for and with their deceased ancestors. We are extremely grateful to the temple presidency and staff for providing this Mandarin session for our branch and others. It was a day that will always be etched in our memories.
