HOLINESS TO THE LORD
THE HOUSE OF THE LORD

"Each temple building is an inspiration, magnificent and beautiful in every way, but the temple building alone does not bless. The endowed blessings and divine functions—come through obedience and faithfulness to priesthood authority and covenants made."
—James E. Faust

Preparing for Parking Lots at the Austin Texas Temple Site

Preparations for the future parking areas at the Austin Texas Temple are underway. Heavy equipment is grading and compacting the terrain, shaping the east and west parking lots where curbing, asphalt paving, and striping for parking stalls will soon follow. These site improvements are progressing alongside ongoing exterior finishing of the temple, where installation of the stone cladding continues to advance.
