3/15 TEMPLE TRIP & GLOW SHOW OR 3/16 TEMPLE TRIP

There was a change for the Regional Dance in March. The previous dance that was scheduled for 3/16 was changed into a fun Outdoor Glow Show Activity at 6:30pm for all youth ages 12+ and the date was moved to Friday 15th. With this change, we decided to add an extra temple session that would occur before the Friday night Activity on the 15th. The session begins and 4:30 and youth would need to arrive by 4:00. This would mean most youth who attend that night would probably need to leave school a early to make it. So, make sure you pack anything you need for the temple and activity, you could wear your church clothes to school that day and share what you are doing with friends or anything else that makes this an exciting opportunity! We also have the previous Saturday afternoon session available too for anyone who still prefers to attend Saturday.

All youth and adult parents or leader can sign up for the Quincy Stake Temple Trip Session. It is important that you sign up on this website so that we do not exceed the maximum number of youth that the temple allows. Signups are now open, click on of the links below!

*Note: The Quincy Stake is signed up for Temple grounds maintenance from 9-11am. This would be a great opportunity for any individual or family who can to attend both. Stary your morning with the temple grounds cleanup, grab some lunch and then attend a temple baptism session.
