Windows Installed in the Winchester Virginia Temple

Moisture-resistant wall sheathing now fully encloses the main body of the Winchester Virginia Temple, while windows have been installed throughout the building. The steel framework for the temple's central tower rises prominently above the roofline, which will support a spire and finial. On the grounds, concrete curbs have been poured along the future driveways and parking areas, reflecting steady progress on the site's infrastructure.

João Pessoa Brazil Temple Begins Vertical Construction

Construction of the João Pessoa Brazil Temple has reached a major milestone with the installation of the first tilt-up concrete wall panel. Using a large crawler crane, crews carefully lifted the massive panel and set it into its permanent position, marking the beginning of the temple's structural walls. Additional tilt-up panels will be erected in the coming weeks. The project began with a groundbreaking held six months ago.

At the front of the temple, extensive reinforced concrete hardscape walls have been completed, defining the elevated entrance plaza and establishing the framework for the surrounding landscaping and pedestrian walkways.
