Lindon Temple Live Ordinance Information:
As a reminder, individuals seeking living ordinances (own endowment or sealings) must first meet with their priesthood leaders and the priesthood leaders must complete the required steps in the Ordinance Preparation System. Once the required steps are completed the patron may schedule an appointment online. With this change, paper Living Ordinance Recommends are no longer used.
Patrons may schedule their own living ordinances online, or they may call the temple office for assistance. The temple telephone number is 801-701-3680.

Self Reliance Classes are starting soon!
A new series of self-reliance courses for the Orem Utah Northridge Stake will begin February 3, 2025, 7pm, in the Northridge Stake Center Primary Room. This email is to inform you of this wonderful opportunity.
Depending on interest, five courses will be offered:
路 Finding a Better Job
路 Education for Better Work
路 Emotional Resilience
路 Personal Finances
路 Starting and Growing My Business
Detailed information about each of these courses may be found online at:
https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/self-reliance/manuals-and-videos?lang=eng
These courses run for 12 weeks (except for Emotional Resilience, which is a 10-week course) and typically meet once each week. The time and day of week is typically tailored by those who sign up for the class to find the day and time that works best for that group.
There will be a booth where you can easily sign up for and learn more about the various courses at our upcoming Stake activity January 31, 2026. More information on that activity will be forthcoming through your bishoprics. You may also sign up by click one of the following links to register for the course you wish to attend (please register for only one):
路 Education for Better Work – For those who need additional education or training to get a job. Group members will research, create, and present career and education plans.
路 Find a Better Job – Group members will learn to identify opportunities, network, present themselves professionally, and prepare for job interviews.
路 Finding Strength in the Lord: Emotional Resilience – This group will help you learn spiritual and practical skills to help you better care for your body, mind, emotions, and relationships.
路 Personal Finances – For those who want better control over their finances. Group members will learn how to eliminate debt, protect against financial hardship, and invest in the future. They will create a financial plan and follow a budget.
路 Starting and Growing My Business – This self-reliance group will help you learn to make wise business decisions as you start or grow a business. Members learn key business skills such as identifying customer needs, finding customers, and keeping good business records.
If you do not have a church account or do not remember how to login to it, you may sign up without a church account by clicking the signup without an account link on the signup page.
Please register before February 3.
NOTE: The times/locations for these courses are tentative. We anticipate that times and locations will be adjusted to accommodate the needs and schedules of course participants at or before the first class. If a large number of individuals register for a particular course, we will create additional groups as needed. After you have registered, you will be contacted to coordinate when and where your group will meet.
If you have questions, please reach out to Brother Scott Barton, iamscottbarton@gmail.com
