Aba Nigeria LDS (Mormon) Temple - Mormons

Este Templo é Maravilhoso que bom mais almas para o Senhor serão salvas.

All churches in Nigeria have seen tremendous growth and is expanding in the Muslim north, God is moving in this nation and Nigerians are turning to Christ, including Muslims!

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has indefinitely closed its Aba Nigeria Temple as a precautionary measure because of recent violence and has evacuated temple workers to other areas.

"The safety of our temple visitors and workers is always our first concern," said LDS Church spokesman Scott Trotter. "Incidents of violence in recent months in the area where the temple is situated are not necessarily related to the temple but could put church members at risk. As a precautionary measure, temple workers have been moved to other areas, and the temple has been closed while the situation is being addressed.

Trotter was unable to confirm or deny published reports in Wednesday's Ogden Standard-Examiner, which had received a mid-June e-mail from a Nigeria temple worker reporting four gunmen carrying AK-47s in the area of the temple and eight bullet holes left in the temple door.

Located in the outskirts of Aba, the temple's complex includes a stake center and administration office. The temple was dedicated Aug. 7, 2005, by President Gordon B. Hinckley.


Two years ago, the LDS Church was the target of another round of violence in Nigeria, as four missionaries were kidnapped near Port Harcourt. With scores of foreign oil company employees kidnapped for ransom in early 2007, the four Nigerian missionaries were soon released with the help of local church leaders.

No. No, it is not.

I do dig Cat Stevens, though.

haha... this is 419 scam in the broad day light!... lmao

The Prophet Joseph Smith declared that in all ages the divine purpose of gathering the people of God is to build temples so His children can receive the highest ordinances and thereby gain eternal life (see Teachings of Presidents of the Church: Joseph Smith [Melchizedek Priesthood and Relief Society course of study, 2007], 41517).

I enjoy this song.

the Church in Nigeria is growing at a rapid pace as the Nigerians embrace our Lord Jesus Christ.
