Site work is advancing at the Provo Utah Rock Canyon Temple beneath the hazy skies created by a developing smoke plume from the Eureka Iron Fire. Landscape gravel has been placed in the perimeter planting beds at the rear corner of the property, and significant progress is evident on the retaining wall system above the east parking area. Meanwhile, crews are steadily installing stone cladding across the temple's lower walls.

During the construction of the Fairview Texas Temple, visitors are invited to learn about the project and the purpose of temples at a temporary on-site Welcome Center. Construction of the temple commenced earlier this year following a groundbreaking ceremony held in February. The Fairview Town Council approved plans for a revised version of the temple following discussions with Church representatives that resulted in a reduction of the proposed steeple height from 174 feet to 120 feet. More recently, the mayor has asked the Church to consider a further reduction in the steeple's height to better reflect Fairview's small-town character.

Exterior finishing work is advancing on the Cali Colombia Temple, where scaffolding remains in place around the central tower as crews continue cladding the structure with ornate stone panels. In the foreground, construction of the ancillary building continues, with its concrete walls taking shape. The temple’s striking setting is framed to the west by the Farallones de Cali, a section of the Andes Mountains that plays an important role in the region’s water supply and hydroelectric system.

Work is progressing on the hardscape features at the main entrance to the Grand Rapids Michigan Temple, creating an attractive and durable gathering space for patrons and guests. Curved planter walls are taking shape around the plaza, while preparations continue for additional landscaping. Installation of stone cladding is advancing along the exterior parapets, and work is expected to soon begin on the front portico and steeple.
