THIS MONTH'S TOUR
Tour of Wilshire Boulevard Temple
March 22, 2018
As many of you know Wilshire Boulevard Temple has recently undergone a major restoration. We heard of the Temple's history from its former executive director and in March we will have the opportunity to tour the Temple and see first hand the stained glass and murals in their full glory. We are fortunate to have this opportunity as tours of the historic sanctuary are available by appointment only.
