"As we contemplated the powerful messages delivered by Washington DC Temple President Earl C. Tingey and Elder Jay E. Jensen of the Presidency of the Seventy, we turned back to look at the temple. We were struck with how vividly the temple emerged from the darkness and seemed to represent the hope of the Gospel and power of the Atonement. The festive purple lights in the trees leading to the temple entrance reminded us of Sister Joanne Tingey's comment of how during Christmas time the world is blessed with the feeling that we have inside the temple every day."
