What is this? A temple for ants?

How can they expect this poor woman to take out her endowments when she can't even fit inside the building.

Evidently the missionary work among the Lilliputians is going well.

Doesn't seem to be stopping her from looking for the door anyway (or perhaps a bottle that says "Drink me"?)
God belief is for people who don't want to live life on the universe's terms.

An interesting solution for the problem of flagging temple attendance:

Shrink the elderly, put them in a tiny temple in a glass case, and never let them out.

The elderly woman to the right of the case is looking for her spouse, who was called on a temple mission, and then mysteriously disappeared. I think she is onto something.

He has heard our prayers, and by revelation has confirmed that the long-promised day has come when every faithful, worthy Star Wars and/or G.I. Joe action figure in the Church may receive the holy priesthood, with power to exercise its divine authority, and enjoy with his loved ones every blessing that flows therefrom, including the blessings of the temple.

Because the ladies shown are either sister missionaries (I count 4) or elderly. (Except for the tourist wearing running shoes.)
