Mormon Clothing: Temples
ShareWhat kind of Mormon clothing is worn in the temple? Members of The Church of Jesus Christ wear their best clothing to go to the temples, as they do when they attend church on Sunday. Once inside, they exchange their clothing for white clothing of the temple. This is such a wonderful thing to see everyone dressed in white. It takes away all the differences in class that exist outside the...
