Two temples of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints will begin building in October simply someday aside — one in California and the opposite in Texas.
The groundbreaking dates have been launched by the church on Monday, and attendance is restricted to invitation solely.
Modesto California Temple
The Modesto California Temple was introduced first in April 2022. It would formally start building a couple of yr and a half in a while Oct. 7.
Presiding over the occasion and providing the dedicatory prayer shall be Elder Gary B. Sabin, a Normal Authority Seventy and the primary counselor of the North American West Space Presidency.
California has seven working temples, per the church. The Feather River California Temple would be the subsequent to be devoted, on Oct. 8 — a day after the Modesto California Temple’s groundbreaking.
Fort Value Texas Temple
The Fort Value Texas Temple was introduced by President Russell M. Nelson two years in the past throughout the October 2021 session of the church’s basic convention. A yr later, the situation of the Fort Value Texas Temple was introduced and now, two years later, the Fort Value temple will formally begin building, with the groundbreaking ceremony going down on Oct. 28.
Elder Jose L. Alonso, a Normal Authority Seventy and the primary counselor within the North America Southwest Space Presidency, will provide the dedicatory prayer that day.
There are 4 different open and working temples within the state already — in Dallas, Houston, Lubbock and San Antonio. A fifth is to be devoted earlier throughout the month on Oct. 8, in McAllen.
