Evenly spaced steel studs are being secured to the structural steel beams of the Winchester Virginia Temple to frame the exterior walls. Above, framing for the upper tier of the steeple has been installed, and the steel base for the spire is now in place. A United States flag flies atop the portico roof at the main entrance. Construction has been underway for approximately eight-and-a-half months.

A construction barrier has been erected around the Naga Philippines Temple site, where preliminary site preparations are underway. Heavy machinery has cleared the property of debris, and work is progressing on leveling the ground and bringing in structural fill dirt. The temple will rise on a 9.11-acre site located at the intersection of Almeda Highway and Almeda Avenue in the Concepcion Grande barangay of Naga. No groundbreaking date has been announced yet.

Cladding of the Provo Utah Rock Canyon Temple with granite panels has progressed to the south side of the front portico on the west elevation of the building. Each panel is carefully engineered, precisely cut, and labeled for placement. The design incorporates classical detailing, including cornices, pilasters, keystones, and ornamented pieces. Installation of the stone anchors has begun across the portico.

On the grounds of the Lubumbashi Democratic Republic of the Congo Temple, a marble reproduction of Bertel Thorvaldsen's Christus statue has been set in place. Standing in front of the temple entrance, directly below the recently installed spire, the sculpture will be the focal point of the property—a reminder that Jesus Christ is the focal point of our lives. In front of the statue, a long, narrow flowerbed has been prepared for planting.
