We drove out to Wasatch County again and saw proof that the new Heber Temple is now actually under construction. I'm sure there are thousands of members of the Church who are grateful that this has finally been started. A very small number of residents have held up the start of this temple through court proceedings but it looks like that could be over now.

Come Follow Me 

D&C 93:33 For man is spirit. The elements are eternal, and spirit and element, inseparably connected, receive a fulness of joy;

34 And when separated, man cannot receive a fulness of joy.

35 The elements are the tabernacle of God; yea, man is the tabernacle of God, even temples; and whatsoever temple is defiled, God shall destroy that temple.

"The Resurrection is brought to pass by the Atonement of Jesus Christ and is pivotal to the great plan of salvation. We are spirit children of heavenly parents. When we come to this earth life, our spirit is united with our body. We experience all the joys and challenges associated with mortal life. When a person dies, their spirit is separated from their body. Resurrection makes it possible for a person’s spirit and body to be united again, only this time that body will be immortal and perfect—not subject to pain, disease, or other problems."

Elder Paul V. Johnson of The Seventy, April 2016
