Sheathing has been installed on the exterior walls of the Fairbanks Alaska Temple, and the first cladding panels have been hung. Crews are also erecting the upper-level steel trusses, including the pedestal that will support the steeple. The steeple framework has been delivered and is currently staged on site. Work is progressing simultaneously on the adjoining meetinghouse and ancillary building, where framing is underway.

Two weeks following a 7.4-magnitude earthquake, Elder Gary E. Stevenson of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles and his wife, Sister Lesa Stevenson, traveled to southwest Colombia to minister to the members of the Church. "We want you to know that you’re not alone. Our hearts are with you. The First Presidency and Quorum of the Twelve Apostles pray for you," he said. Before speaking to a group of hundreds of Saints, they visited the Cali Colombia Temple site. The neighborhood surrounding the site was significantly affected by the earthquake, but the temple itself was unharmed.

Installation of exterior sheathing is underway at the Birmingham England Temple, with orange-colored sheathing boards now covering portions of the building. The sheathing will enclose and protect the interior while preparing the exterior for subsequent cladding and finish work. Construction on the temple and an ancillary building, located immediately to the north, has been underway for the past 17 months.

Parking areas are taking shape at the Lehi Utah Temple site, with curbs and paved surfaces being installed along the perimeter of the property and around the site of the future meetinghouse. In the center of the site, extensive excavation has been completed for the temple, while retaining structures have been installed as preparations continue for the next stages of construction. No date has been announced for the formal groundbreaking ceremony.
