Whether you are facing great or small challenges, there is a well-known place in the California Bay Area that can bring hope, happiness, light, and guidance in life—the Oakland Temple.
加州湾区的奥克兰圣殿占地总面积为18英亩,于1964年11月17日开始正式运营。奥克兰圣殿在全球领先的旅游网站,猫途鹰(TripAdvisor)上得高评,在各方面都排名第一,包括热门景点、景点与地标、自然与公园和旅行者最爱。在所发表的评论中最常提到的是 “平安” 和 “美丽”。其中有一位旅客写道 “特别是在了解圣殿的意义后… 会感到平安.”
There are three major buildings on the Oakland Temple site: the temple, the church center, and the visitors’ center.

圣殿
The temple stands at the southernmost part of the Temple Hill campus and is one of the most important buildings of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Latter-day Saints believe that the temple is the House of the Lord. Throughout history, the Lord commanded His people to build temples for sacred purposes, such as Moses’ Tabernacle, or King Solomon’s Temple. As in ancient times, the Lord continues to command His people to build temples in modern times. There are currently 167 temples operating around the world, with more under construction.
耶稣基督后期圣徒教会连续不断地建立圣殿的原因是为了让世界各地的人都有机会享有来自圣殿的祝福。后期圣徒相信透过耶稣基督的赎罪,若在圣殿中进行各种神圣仪式,与神立约,并且坚持遵守承诺,可带来许多永恒的祝福,包括永远与神同住,与家人永远在一起。
其次,圣殿也是圣徒的一个安全的避风港。在这个动荡不安的时代及社会中,许许多多的挑战有时会使人筋疲力尽,甚至失去对生活的希望、动力或信心,此时圣殿就是医治圣徒心灵、灵魂和接受个人启示的地方,让他们再次充满力量和灵感,勇敢地面对世上所有的事情。圣殿更是一个学习的地方,圣徒可以更了解神给世人的幸福计画和益于他们灵魂福祉的事。
Once dedicated, entrance inside a temple is reserved for members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints who have committed to living the gospel of Jesus Christ and is ready to participate in further sacred ordinances. Any Church member who obeys the teachings and commandments of Jesus Christ can obtain a recommendation card from their local Church leader certifying that they are prepared to enter the temple.

教会中心
To the east of the Oakland Temple site is the church center, covering an area of 8,500 square feet, with a 1,639-seat auditorium, a standard-size basketball court, the main chapel with 4,000 pipe organ, a baptistry, 170 rooms of different sizes, and two kitchens. This is a place where people gather together for Sunday worship services. Due to the diversity of ethnic cultures in the Bay Area, Sunday Church meetings are held in various languages including English, Chinese, Spanish, Tongan, and Cambodian ((查看聚会时间和地点)). All members and non-members are welcome to attend. The church center also hosts service projects, musical performances, and events. With all these activities, the ultimate goal is to help devout Church members and non-members alike grow closer to Jesus Christ and to prepare to enjoy the blessings of the temple.

访客中心
The Visitors’ Center is located on the west of the temple site. The interior is equipped with an 11-foot statue of the resurrected Christ, portraits, movies, models, and other exhibits to help visitors better understand Jesus Christ, the temple, and the beliefs of the Church. Those who serve inside the Visitors’ Center are friendly volunteers who provide free guided tours and answer questions.
访客中心楼下还有一个家庭搜索图书馆免费提供给所有访客,内部的书籍、电子版资料、技术设备、传教士提供的线上家庭历史导览以及家庭历史专家提供的个性化服务可以帮助人们搜索家庭历史、建立谱系并为后代保留现有的回忆。家庭对于后期圣徒来说十分重要,他们相信神的爱超越每一代,所以祂为每一个来过世上的人提供了一条道路来得到圣殿的祝福,即永远与神和家人在一起,获得完全的幸福,变得像耶稣基督一样。后期圣徒努力不懈地研究家谱,为的是找出他们的祖先,好让他们在圣殿里代替已世的祖先完成圣殿仪式,若这些祖先愿意接受并跟随耶稣基督,圣殿的祝福也属于他们。世世代代可以此方法连接在一起,成为一个永恒的大家庭,共同享乐。家庭搜索图书馆也提供免费的导览,可以在此网站预约时间: https://www.familysearch.org/wiki/en/Oakland_California_FamilySearch_Library 或者致電 (510) 531-3905

圣殿花园
Whichever building you are visiting, you will walk through the beautiful and charming temple grounds. Throughout the year, there are a variety of beautiful flowers. There are also tall palm trees lining both sides. Through the center of the garden are sparkling fountains and connecting water features, symbolizing the living water given by Jesus Christ to the world. Many people like to stroll, walk their dogs, or relax on the quiet paths. Directly in front of the temple is a calm reflection pool. The water in the pool comes from the grand waterfall on the front wall of the temple. On either side of the waterfall are stairs that lead up to the eye-opening roof garden, with a 360-degree view around the temple, and a panoramic view of the Bay Area, including San Francisco, the city of Oakland, the Golden Gate Bridge, and the coast. In the evening, the temple grounds offer a magnificent view of the sunset overlooking the bay.
After the completion of each temple, and before the official operation begins, Church leaders will offer a prayer, dedicating the temple grounds to the Lord. The dedicatory prayer for the Oakland Temple, offered by President David McKay in 1964. In his prayer, he stated; “The square where we dedicated the temple and the surrounding walls, flower beds, trees, potted plants, flowers and growing in the soil, the bushes; let them bloom, bloom, and become extremely beautiful and fragrant; let your spirit dwell in it, and let this land be a resting and peaceful place for people to meditate and be full of inspiration.”
Life is indeed unpredictable, sometimes full of happiness and joy, sometimes full of anger and sorrow, but God’s love for us remains unchanged forever. When we are happy, He is happy for us. When we encounter challenges, feelings of anger, fear, or pain, He does His best to support and comfort us. He brings us a sense of security and helps us gain confidence. Any who come to the California Oakland Temple, including residents and tourists, will experience this feeling of peace. That is why it is often called the “Beacon to the Bay.” It is the light that shines at night, not only in the Bay Area, but also in the darkness of life, which indeed brings us hope and happiness, and light and guidance in life.
