Temples | The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints

-
    Welcome back to another blog! If any of you have ever wanted to attend the temples by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints while on vacation, here are some tips to make that happen! 
    
  Know where your final destination is and what the route is. If you know your route you are able to plan accordingly to the temples along the route or in close proximity of the route. You don't want to go far off your route if you have plans at future stopping points, but if the temple is a priority than consider changing the route/plans. The second that my family drove through the mid-west to get to Tennessee, I was able to attend temples with my dad and sister. Name the day you want to go, if you have to make an appointment, and if they provide baptismal clothing if you aren't sure. Once you find out if they will be open, and if you need an appointment, continue to do so. Let them know that you want to make an appointment for baptisms (if that is the ordinance that you choose to do). If you know the time that you want to attend ask if they any openings at that particular time, if they don't they will give you options to other times that are available. Once you know the time and day, tell them how many people are in your group, counting Priesthood Brethren who will be helping with the ordinance (the ones that have the Melchizedek Priesthood). At the closing of making an appointment, they will ask for your name, and contact info so they can send you a reminder of the time, day and temple you will be attending. This seems like a whole lot of information, but the process isn't as hard as it seems. The information above may not be in the right order, but all of it is relevant. 

    I know that was a lot to comprehend, but I hope this was all helpful! Feel free to reach out to me via Instagram, email or by leaving messages/questions in the comments below! Merry Christmas!

     Hi ya! I've been wanting to do a blog for a while now, but never found the time to make it work until now. A little bit about me, I am a high school senior, roundtripped to 37/50 US states (yes by car) with my family, I spent two-weeks in India I'll explain more about the trip and organization at a later time, I plan on spending a semester abroad in Ukraine with a different organization I expand on this a little more and why I decided to spend time there. I am a HUGE Disney fan! You name it, and I have probably seen it and/or listened to the sound track for it. I love movie watching, listening to music, going for drives with the windows down and music blasting throw the stereos.           For those of you out there, who want to know the weird facts here you go! Toothbrush color is purple, I'm left handed, I love drinking pickle juice, my breakfast in Elementary school consisted of mayonnaise on a slice of toast. Yes, you heard that right, mayo and toast for breakfast.

Disneyland & California Adventure

    Like I said in the last post, week #9 will be all about Disneyland. This was a one week trip taken at the end of April in 2018. I have never been to Disneyland before this, but I still had a magical time! So, here we go!!     Little did I know that my sisters and I wouldn't be alone. My parents coordinated this trip with two aunts and uncles, so instead of there being seven of us, there were 17 of us. More the merrier right?! This trip still would've been fun if it was just my immediate family, but having extended family tag along, made this trip that much better.      To start off, we spent two days in Disneyland, that also included California Adventure. This was possible because we had a two-day park hopper, which allowed to go back and forth between Disneyland and California Adventure. I don't have my travel journal with me, because I am currently at work, so I will try to do this to the best of my ability with the knowledge that remains inside my head.      At the t

Saving ⮚ Blog 13

     Money is a big issue when it comes to traveling. Most people don’t travel because they don’t have the money. Yet, here is a high school senior whose been to 34/50 states, Boston MA 2x, India and soon to be Ukraine. Three of these trips I pay in full by myself with little to no fundraising.       One of the reasons is my job. I have a well-paying and flexible job that allows me to get an education and travel, whether I travel with family, or strangers that later become friends. A job brings in money, which I can put aside and save, but it helps to know what you’re saving for. When you know what you’re saving for, you know how much it’ll cost you, which then allows you to set a plan. Back in 2019, when I went to India on a humanitarian trip for two weeks, I also had the opportunity to fly back to Boston again for a week for my sister and cousin. These two trips probably cost me about 5k total, but it was totally worth it. That might not seem like a huge chunk of money, but as a 16 y
