Following are excerpts from the Ciudad Juarez Mexico Temple dedicatory prayer, offered Feb. 26, by President Gordon B. Hinckley. Complete texts of dedicatory prayers are available on the Church News Web site, www.ldschurchnews.com.
"May it be a house of peace where those who serve may lay aside the cares of the world. May it be a house of love where those who labor may realize that the ordinances here administered, for both the living and the dead, assist in bringing to pass the great provisions of the Atonement of Thy Son. May it be a house of worship where Thy sons and daughters can commune with Thee. . . .
"Bless this great nation of Mexico that it may rise and shine among the nations of the earth. Lift the burden of poverty from the backs of the people. Bless the leaders of government that they may welcome Thy servants, and may the message brought by Thy servants take root in the hearts of many souls."
