FARMINGTON, New Mexico — Just 50 miles southeast of the Four Corners Monument, the only part of the United States where four states intersect, now stands a monument where heaven and earth intersect: the Farmington New Mexico Temple.

“This sacred house of the Lord testifies more than any other place of the immortality of the soul and that life continues beyond the veil,” said Elder Neil L. Andersen of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles, who dedicated the temple on Sunday, Aug. 17.

The “wonderful link” that binds families together eternally is Jesus Christ, he said. “Only through the incomparable gift of the Savior do we have power to bind in heaven what is bound on earth.”
