    • Louisa Elizabeth Cutler loved the temple
      Contributed By Jennifer Eyring_1 · 25 October 2013 ·

      Louisa Elizabeth Cutler was born in 1816 and was seventeen when she joined the church. She met Tunis Rappleye and they were married by the prophet Joseph Smith. They lived in Kirkland where they both helped with the building of the temple. Louisa sewed and cooked for the men building the temple. She worked long hours for the temple, not knowing if she would ever be allowed inside. They were able to be there at the dedication of the Kirkland temple. In Nauvoo, the Lord again commanded the Saints to build a temple. They anticipated with much joy the opportunity to receive holy ordinances in the temple. Because of the tremendous persecution they needed to leave Nauvoo. Prior to leaving Nauvoo and heading west Louisa was able to receive her endowment in the Nauvoo temple. She was a valiant and faithful woman. It was the strength and power and blessings of temple covenants that sustained her during the challenges she faced...waiting seven long years for her husband on a mission of helping saints across the plains and then finally being able to cross the plains herself with her children. It was a difficult journey - fierce elements, Indian attacks, persecution, losing 3 children. She wrote in her journal that she emerged from the temple in Nauvoo armed with power and was literally sustained by her covenants. Her faith has blessed the lives of all her posterity!
