About This Quote

The divine plan of happiness enables family relationships to be perpetuated beyond the grave. Sacred ordinances and covenants available in holy temples make it possible for individuals to return to the presence of God and for families to be united eternally. The divine plan of happiness is one of the great doctrines of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, which is that families can be together forever. Family relationships do not end with death.

They continue through the experiences of mortality. The Lord has provided for this through ordinances and covenants available only in holy temples.
