- The Philadelphia Pennsylvania Temple was dedicated as the 152nd temple of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, Sunday, September 18, 2016. It is the first temple in Philadelphia and in the state. President Henry B. Eyring, first Counselor in the First Presidency of the Church dedicated the temple in three sessions on Sunday and presided over the youth cultural celebration the night prior at Temple University. President Erying has a close bond to this particular temple since he was born and lived in New Jersey and was baptized in Philiadelphia as a boy.
beautiful!
Why are the men dressed in white suits?
Pete Rojas all temple clothing is white. Hence, the white suits. Hope this helps.
It's suppose to represent that they're standing before the Lord in respect and purity. Although it does make me question why we spend so much on elaborate buildings, and non-food producing landscapes when there are over 21,000 people who die every day of hunger or hunger-related causes. Makes me have lots more questions.
