Let me help, in Jesus's day the unworthy were not allowed in the temple either. The Jews didn't believe in preaching the gospel to all nations, either. But Jesus sure does.

Worshiping in the temple by early Apostles or other disciples didn’t end with the rending of the veil at Christ’s Crucifixion. The NT has plenty of references to such, well after Christ was gone and the law fulfilled.

The rending of the veil in the holy of holies at the death of Christ was a symbolic opening up of the temple to those outside of levitic lineage, and the fulfillment of the Law of Moses.

True, they didn't just stop going to the temple, but they were pretty busy setting up local churches (in people's homes or wherever) so they probably didn't get there all that often. And when they did, they spoke of the risen Savior whenever possible.
