Temple Goals for Youth and Young Adults
One of the blessings of living in a time with so many temples around the world is having more opportunities than ever to attend and worship in the house of the Lord. Whether you're preparing to receive your endowment, attending baptisms for the dead, or making temple worship a regular part of your life, setting temple goals can help you stay focused on what matters most.
When we were younger, temple attendance often felt like a special event. As we've grown older, we've learned that some of our most meaningful experiences have come from consistently making time for the temple, even when life gets busy.
Why Set Temple Goals?
Goals give us direction. Just as we set goals for school, work, fitness, or finances, setting goals for our spiritual growth can help us stay committed and intentional.
Temple goals can:
-
Strengthen your testimony
-
Help you develop a regular worship routine
-
Create meaningful family traditions
-
Encourage personal revelation
-
Keep your focus on eternal priorities
The goal isn't simply to visit more temples. It's to become more like Christ through the covenants we make and keep.
Simple Temple Goals to Consider
If you're looking for ideas, here are a few goals that can help strengthen your relationship with the Savior:
Attend the Temple Monthly
A monthly temple visit is a realistic goal for many youth and young adults. Putting temple attendance on your calendar helps ensure it becomes a priority rather than an afterthought.
Visit a New Temple
Every temple has its own beauty and history. Visiting a new temple can make your experience memorable and help you appreciate the growth of the Church around the world.
Attend With Friends or Family
Some of our favorite temple memories have involved family members and close friends. Consider inviting someone to attend with you and make the experience even more meaningful.
Record Your Experiences
After each visit, take a few minutes to write down impressions, feelings, and memories. Small moments can become powerful reminders later in life.
Make the Journey Meaningful
Temple worship isn't a competition, and there is no perfect number of visits. What matters most is consistency and a sincere desire to draw closer to Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ.
Whether your goal is to attend once a month, visit every temple in your state, or simply become more intentional about temple worship, every step forward matters.
We created My Temple Journey because we wanted a simple way to remember the temples we've visited and the experiences we've had along the way. Our hope is that it helps individuals and families create lasting memories centered on the temple.
Thank you for being part of this journey with us.
Warmly, Scott & Riah
