Youth Have Amazing Temple Trip

   Over 30 Young Men and Young Women and their leaders enjoyed a Saturday evening trip to the Sacramento temple to do baptisms for ancestors who have passed away.  Some of the names they did were ones that they had researched themselves. Others came from ward members who had names that needed the baptismal ordinance.
   Several of the Young Men who are Priests performed all the baptisms.  It is only recently that youth have been permitted to do this, and it was a special experience for them. Girls can also help in the temple by recording ordinances and helping with baptismal clothes.
    This is the first time the temple trip has been made in the evening and it seemed to be an better hour for most of the youth, as well as the leaders.  It was a very successful evening.  Bishop Holden and Counselor Joseph Stringer accompanied the group to the temple.
