HOLINESS TO THE LORD
THE HOUSE OF THE LORD

"We know that Elijah did return—at least twice—after Malachi's promise.…At the Kirtland Temple, April 3, 1836, Elijah appeared to the Prophet and Oliver Cowdery and said, 'The keys of this dispensation are committed into your hands.'"
—Russell M. Nelson

Installing Stained-Glass Windows in the Cagayan de Oro Philippines Temple

At the Cagayan de Oro Philippines Temple, stained-glass windows have been installed in the arched openings of the tiered tower rising above the main entrance. The tall, slender panels feature a repeating diamond lattice design rendered in rich blue-green tones. Subtle variations in the textured glass catch and diffuse light, while dark lead lines define a geometric pattern with small colored square accents at each intersection.

Precast Concrete Mockup Panels Arrive at the Tampa Florida Temple Site

Precast concrete panels for the exterior mockup of the Tampa Florida Temple have arrived onsite, joining the completed brick veneer mockups for the meetinghouse and distribution center. Crews are currently installing the footings for the meetinghouse, while a slab-on-grade concrete pour for the main floor of the temple is scheduled for next week. Meanwhile, ongoing site preparation activities continue to transform the property, with grading operations steadily reducing the large dirt mound that has been a prominent feature of the site in recent months.
