The Tabernacle in Idaho Falls, where the D. I is now, had an incredible Baptismal Font. It was surrounded with live plants and a huge bay window floor to ceiling. This is where I was baptized. We all felt such a horrible loss when it came down. The huge spiral staircase led to a remarkable ballroom and the chapel was incredible, with, I believe, dark mahogany, carved and turned wood and dark red velvet upholstery. Cherished memories.
Considering just how few tools and resources the pioneers had when got to the Salt Lake valley, it's amazing that with such humble beginnings, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has greatly prospered from performing baptisms in lakes, and rivers to having many baptismal fonts in temples and in chapels around the world! I know that this church is true, and that Christ is at the helm!
Wonderful historic ruins - fantastic! Curious, though... one of the workers in this video mentioned the Provo Tabernacle being the only example of a font in a tabernacle, other than Temple Square. The Brigham City Tabernacle has a font in it. I don't know if it's older than Provo's tabernacle or vice-versa, but it's noteworthy nonetheless.

That man, Benjamin Pykles, was my branch president before he moved to Utah! Hi President Pykles, glad to see you're making a name for yourself!
It is a work of perfection, inside and out! Unforgettable!!
It’s almost as if the Tabernacle was destined to become a Temple all along.

Wow! I live in walking distance and I find this out in UA-cam!

Fascinating!
This is very interesting.
It's very pretty! What's the official color of that brick?
I was baptized in a river. That was 40 years ago. Should I be rebaptized?
How cool is that?!? =)
Es una provocación e insulto a las tradiciones de ese lugar.
