The post is about a SP talking about how a TR should be for more than just attending weddings, if the church got out of performing weddings it would take care of that problem.

My brother-in-law will not have any of his siblings at his wedding. His two older siblings are heathens and his non-heathen sibling is 17 years old.

I had lots of "heathen" family members who had to chill in the waiting room too. Needless to say, their experience of feeling excluded didn't really warm them up to TCoJCOLD.
Your sister was worried about someone watching her 2 month old for a duration of less than an hour?

Originally posted by LA Ute View PostI hope this happens. In days gone by, in Latin American countries people had to be married civilly before they attended an LDS temple sealing ceremony -- which weren't recognized as lawful marriages. People I know there got married civilly one day, went home separately, then went to their sealing the next day. I don't know if that is still the practice there.

I may be small, but I'm slow.
