The Temple Service Application is provided to help members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints to serve in the temples throughout the world. For those who are not members of this church this app is irrelevant. The intended purpose is to allow members to identify the frequency and type of service they would like to give and then provide a mechanism to track what services have been completed. The interface allows a visual view of the year's service and is intended to only monitor one year. Each year you reset the data and re-establish your next years service goals.
