Crews have begun pouring the slab foundation for the Naga Philippines Temple, about a month after the groundbreaking ceremony. The city of Naga is located at the center of the Bicol Peninsula, about 250 miles (400 kilometers) south of Manila. The new temple will provide greater access to temple ordinances for Latter-day Saints throughout Bicol. Currently, members travel to the Alabang Philippines Temple.

Construction is advancing steadily on the Teresina Brazil Temple, where the foundation has been completed and the superstructure is now rising. Reinforced-concrete walls and columns are taking shape, with extensive formwork and rebar supporting the structural work. A tower crane stands over the site, assisting crews as construction progresses upward. Teresina sits on the eastern bank of the Parnaíba River on the border between the states of Piauí and Maranhão.

A welcome center has opened near the construction site of the Missoula Montana Temple, providing a place for visitors to learn more about the project and to view the construction progress. Visitors also have the opportunity to write their names on small, one-inch stones, which will be placed beneath the building as construction of the foundation continues, creating a unique connection between the community and the temple.

Construction preparations are underway for the Florianópolis Brazil Temple, where crews have begun clearing and grading the temple site. Heavy equipment is removing vegetation and debris while the expansive property is leveled and prepared for construction. Fencing has been installed around the site as the groundwork for the project is established. A date for the groundbreaking ceremony has not yet been announced.
