For Mankind's Destiny

For mankind's destiny-

All marriages between 

A man and a woman,

Are central to God’s plan 

Having all come from Heaven

This grand foundational doctrine

Populates the world with love

For children come from above

This makes sacred the word marriage

Holy, for the home to cherish

Mormon Family — The concept of a united family that lives and progresses forever is at the core of Latter-day Saint doctrine. Within families led by a father and a mother, children develop virtues such as love, trust, loyalty, cooperation and service.http://www.mormonnewsroom.org/blog/mormon-images-available-for-use
Mormon Temple Marriage — Members of the Church believe that marriages performed in temples are "sealed," or blessed to last for eternity. The concept that the family unit can continue beyond the grave as a conscious, loving entity, with the marriage partnership and parent-child relationships intact, is a core belief of members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.http://www.mormonnewsroom.org/blog/mormon-images-available-for-use
