The figure on top of most mormon temples
September 24, 2009 on 4:30 pm | By admin | In ReferenceI get quite a few questions about our mormon temples. Someone asked me years ago, “Who is the woman standing on top of your mormon temples?” I explained that it wasn’t a woman, but the angel Moroni. I guess the robe could have been mistaken for a dress. I love it when I’m traveling at night and in the darkness, I see the familiar Moroni glowing in the sky. If I recall correctly, the statue was designed by a man who wasn’t even a member of the church. I should look it up. It was a school story how he came to be made.
