The Washington D.C. Latter-day Saint Temple is a sacred space for Church members and others. “It really has been miraculous how the Lord has preserved this piece of ground,” said Brent Pratt, a Latter-day Saint living in the area. “Through the Civil War, it was never clear cut like so many places in Washington. And it has been preserved through time.” This Church News video, titled “Fit for the Lord,” features scenes from the Washington D.C. Temple open house and rededication earlier this year.

For decades the towering marble edifice at our nation's capital has posed a mystery to those outside the faith. Now, after a major renovation, a public open house will welcome all to visit a building dedicated to reverence and contemplation. https://cbsn.ws/3EnJ4ML | CBS Sunday Morning
