KIRKLAND TEMPLE DIGITAL ART

FINAL PROJECT, RELS - 225 BY SIDDALEIGH TODD

MY PROJECT

Doctrine & Covenants 109I chose to design a digital art piece that depicts the Kirkland Temple and the pioneers who come across the plains to get there. - Church Hardship - Genealogy - God's Guidance - Temple Sanctity

MY DIGITAL ART

The Kirkland Temple is meaningful to me because I remember taking a tour with my family there when I was around 10 and just feeling the spirit so strongly and I also enjoy the history and the buildings story.

DOCTRINE AND COVENANTS

Doctrine & Covenants 109:2 For the building of mine house, and for the laying of the foundation of Zion and for the priesthood, and for the debts of the Presidency of my Church.

“In Kirtland, the Prophet received revelation after revelation about the organization of the Church, all in preparation for what would be the crowning achievement—the building of the temple.”

Come, Follow Me. Doctrine and Covenants 109–110: The Kirtland Temple a Place of Holiness. By Elder Jeremy R. Jaggi Of the Seventy

“Ira was intrigued by the gospel message. He wanted to know more and also felt impressed to make a contribution to the building of the Kirtland Temple. So he and Weltha traveled by buggy to Kirtland, Ohio, USA, to meet the Prophet Joseph Smith.”

An Anchor for Today - by Elder Marcus B. Nash of the Seventy

PERSONAL APPLICATION

For my personal application I think biggest enjoyment I got out of this was all the research I did on pioneers and the revelation given to Joseph Smith in the temple. The pioneer stories helped me connect with my ancestors and I had the opportunity to attend the temple and reap the joy of revelation and connection with those who have passed.

Thank you!
