How Firm a Foundation for Families

The Mesa Temple Visitors' Center was blessed to be a place of refuge for families.  Over thirty years ago, President Elder Boyd K. Packer, in the Dedicatory Prayer of the Visitors' Center, prayed that "homes and families might be blessed"..."parents struggling and anxious over their children"...."couples that are struggling to find a relationship with one another"  - would all receive blessings here.

In the Visitors' Center families are able to find guidance and renewed hope for the challenges they face as they learn from the teachings and presentations found  in the Center.
