A public open house for the new Anchorage Alaska Temple has been announced for Thursday, May 13, through Saturday, May 29, 2027 (excluding Sundays). The event will begin with a media day held on Monday, May 10, followed by two days of tours for invited guests. The dedication will be held on Sunday, June 13, 2027, and be broadcast to all units in the temple district. The original temple, still operating on the same property as the new temple, will permanently close on Monday, March 22, 2027. It will be replaced with a new meetinghouse.

Construction of the Santa Cruz Bolivia Temple has entered the late stages with exterior work nearly completed. The temple features a light-colored stone façade, beautiful art-glass windows, and a distinctive tower with red tile roofing and a finial. Landscaping continues across the grounds, while crews complete the site's perimeter improvements, including sidewalks, curbing, and plantings. Temporary construction screening remains in place.

Construction activity is advancing across the Lehi Utah Temple site, where significant progress has been made on the extensive retaining wall system. At the rear of the property, crews have completed long sections of tiered retaining walls that terrace the hillside and establish the upper grade behind the temple. Additional retaining walls are also taking shape along the boundary between the meetinghouse site and the temple grounds.

In his first assignment since beginning his service in the Brazil Area Presidency, Elder Ronald M. Barcellos of the Seventy presided at the groundbreaking ceremony for the Santos Brazil Temple on Saturday, August 1, 2026. Church members, friends, public officials, religious leaders, and invited guests gathered for the occasion, bringing together generations of Latter-day Saints from across the Baixada Santista region. The ceremony was held in the Jabaquara Ward meetinghouse, located on the very site where the 23,000-square-foot temple will soon rise.
