Anna's vision and spiritual experience in the Salt Lake Temple

“On speaking of it afterward to a dear friend, Anna said: ‘I felt that a spirit of peace rested om me as soon as we entered that holy shrine, and all day, as I walked through the beautiful rooms, hearing those great truths explained with such sweet simplicity, I felt like singing in my heart, ‘ Nearer my God to Thee,’ for I felt nearer than ever before. Then, after all was past, and we knelt over the altar and lis-tened to that noble, white-haired man solemnly repeat the ceremony that made us man and wife; I think the quiet, peaceful joy that stole into my heart was a little taste of heaven. It was what I should call a ‘ perfect hap-piness’—being without flaw or blemish, or tiny spot to mar its divine beauty.” — The Young Woman's Journal 3:3”
