HOLINESS TO THE LORD
THE HOUSE OF THE LORD

"You are never lost when you can see the temple. The temple will provide direction for you and your family in a world filled with chaos. It is an eternal guidepost which will help you from getting lost in the 'mist of darkness.'"
—Gary E. Stevenson

Cladding the Steeple of the Birmingham England Temple

Stone cladding has begun on the steeple of the Birmingham England Temple, adding the first exterior stone finishes to the temple's prominent architectural feature. The work marks another step toward completing the temple's exterior. Plans for England's third temple were announced in April 2022, and groundbreaking services were held in March 2025. The temple is rising on Penns Lane next to the Wylde Green Ward meetinghouse.

Zoning Change and Preliminary Plat Approved by Spanish Fork City Council

On October 6, the Spanish Fork City Council approved a zone change and preliminary plat for Oak Village, a master-planned development where the Spanish Fork Utah Temple will be located. The preliminary plat includes 110 single-family residential lots, while three separate parcels are designated for the existing meetinghouses and future temple. Plans for the residential neighborhood include improved road connections, pedestrian trails, and frontage improvements along 100 South and Spanish Fork Parkway. A roundabout is also planned as part of the development. The temple remains in the design phase, and final plans will be submitted to the City later.
