Mormons are members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Their temples are considered houses of God, places of holiness and peace separate from the preoccupations of the world. Temples provide a place where Church members make formal promises and commitments to God. They are also the place where the highest sacraments of the faith occur — the marriage of couples and the “sealing” of families for eternity.
