The Fairbanks Alaska Temple is taking shape rapidly as exterior cladding panels are installed across the structure, including the steeple. The accelerated progress reflects the temple's modular construction. The exterior finishes are beginning to conceal the structural framing and establish the building's finished appearance. Construction is also progressing on the meetinghouse and ancillary building that share the property, where roofing is now underway.

Construction of the Antananarivo Madagascar Temple is taking shape as structural framing rises from the completed foundation. The foundation has established the footprint of the 10,000-square-foot building, while framing is defining its structure. Foundations for the temple’s ancillary structures are also in place. The temple is rising alongside an existing Church meetinghouse on Lalana Général Andrimahazo in Antananarivo.

Set against the beautiful skyline of Ribeirão Preto, landscaping and site improvements are nearing completion at the Ribeirão Preto Brazil Temple, where the stone-clad exterior and central spire rise above the surrounding grounds. Palm trees, ornamental plantings, and freshly maintained lawns frame the temple, while paved parking areas and walkways establish access around the building. Parking lot striping has been added as crews complete the final site details, while interior finish work progresses toward completion.
