Our next stop was Kirtland, Ohio. The Saints built their first temple here. It is now owned by the Community of Christ, and it is still in use today for meetings and concerts. We loved getting to tour that magnificent building.
After touring the Kirtland Temple we came over to the Visitors Center which is built close to where the Newel K Whitney store and home are. It was again really neat to see how the saints lived and worked in that community. We also got to see the lumber mill and the ashery. Those both were used to make money for the Saints and to help build the temple that was not far off.
