JAHS Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 "A golden statue of an angel that sits atop an LDS Church temple in Bountiful was struck by lightning this weekend. Eric Hawkins, a spokesman for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, confirmed the damage visible in photos was caused by a lightning strike, but he said no further information was available. It is unclear what, if any, plans the LDS Church has to repair or replace the statue. Similar statues top other LDS Church temples. The Angel Moroni is significant in Mormon theology, as LDS Church founder Joseph Smith said he was visited by the angel in his youth."
