Goodrich and Maurine Winters Trade Paperback ISBN: 0-595-24893-4 DESCRIPTION Angels on Temple Square is a collection of thoughts, feelings and experiences that happened on Temple Square in the heart of Salt Lake City, Utah. The angels are the sister missionaries who serve there from many countries speaking up to 42 languages at any given time. The people involved in this collection of stories share them to help others throughout the world who are on a quest to come unto Christ. Anyone who ever visited Temple Square had an experience similar to at least one of the stories
that is written within the pages of this book. The conversion stories of sister
missionaries will touch your heart when you see how much many of them sacrificed
so they could come and serve there. It is amazing to see all the tapestry that
was involved with each sister no matter what country she was from. It really
brings out the point that God loves all that want to serve Him equally anywhere
on Earth. The other half is full of spiritual experiences that visitors enjoyed
regardless their background while walking around Temple Square in company of
sister missionaries. It is a great addition to your library or a great gift for
anyone who visited Temple Square before.
