"While temple and family history work has power to bless those beyond the veil, it has an equal power to bless the living. It has a refining influence on those who are engaged in it. Temple ordinances and temple work will bless you and your family with power and protection. His essential ordinances bind us to him through sacred priesthood covenants. As we keep our covenants, he endows us with his healing, strengthening power." ~Russell M. Nelson

Renlund
