Anyone, regardless ofreligion, may enter a Latter-Day Saint meetinghouse and attend services. However, because ofthe sacredness oftemples as "houses of the Lord," only members ofthe Church who are in good standing are allowed to enter the temples. A member must be observing the basic principles ofthe faith and attest to that fact to his or her local leaders once every two years in order to enter a temple. Ref.
