Sacramento Temple Primary Activity

The kids' Primary all met at the Sacramento Temple to do a temple walk. Before walking around we all met in a grassy area and sang "I Love to See the Temple". I (Erica) had to hold back tears as the vision of these young children becoming strong leaders, priesthood holders, mothers, fathers etc... became more clear in my mind. The spirit was so strong.

All of the children received a bingo like card with stickers and as we walked around and learned about the temple the kids placed the stickers in the appropriate square.

Afterwards they all gathered in the grassy area again and had snacks and reviewed some of the things that they learned. 
All of the children were quite reverent. I am glad that they could have this great activity for the children and that we could have a temple so close to home. (We also thought of Rob and Kristy's wedding here and the upcoming wedding of Mick and Jessica).

I got chills as I looked at these photos. What a great experience. I hope they always remember what they felt there. Thanks so much for posting these.
