HOLINESS TO THE LORD
THE HOUSE OF THE LORD

"There is a difference in just attending the temple and having a rich spiritual experience. The real blessings of the temple come as we enhance our temple experience. To do so, we must feel a spirit of reverence for the temple and a spirit of worship."
—L. Lionel Kendrick

Foundation Work Begins for the Fairview Texas Temple

Construction at the Fairview Texas Temple has entered the foundation phase as crews form the concrete footings for the basement and baptismal font. Wood formwork now outlines much of the lower-level foundation, including the octagonal footing layout for the baptismal font. Underground plumbing lines have also been installed throughout the excavation ahead of the foundation concrete pours.

Roofing Advancing at the Birmingham England Temple

Roofing work is progressing steadily at the Birmingham England Temple, with standing-seam metal panels now covering the north and south wings while steel framing remains exposed over the east and west wings. The temple’s central tower has reached its full structural height, further defining the building’s architectural profile. As the structure is enclosed, crews will prepare for the next phase of interior construction.
