Visitors center frames Mormon temple for non believers
Visitors to the Mormon temple complex in Kensington, Maryland, can take a film tour at the visitors center while non believers are barred from entry. The site draws about 175,000 yearly, and center director Elder Ralph Hill says there is no proselytizing, only public relations. The grounds feature extensive plantings and a Moroni statue atop a 288-foot spire. The temple, the third largest in use, serves sacred ordinances and sealing ceremonies to bind families eternally, including proxy baptisms for ancestors.
