The setting sun illuminates the rugged mountains west of the city of Gomez Palacio, casting a golden glow across the valley and catching the edges of the Torreón Mexico Temple.

The temple was recently featured in a news article published by the local media outlet Reporte Laguna.

The sun begins to rise on a crisp winter morning at the Montpelier Idaho Temple, coloring the sky in vibrant orange and purple hues.

In the beautiful island nation of Vanuatu, Family Day is celebrated each year on December 26—the day after Christmas. Places of work and education are closed to provide residents a day to give thanks and spend time with family. For members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, the building of the Port Vila Vanuatu Temple is also a reason for families to celebrate. The metallic spire was recently installed atop the tower.

In celebration of the birth of Jesus Christ, a star-topped Christmas tree that glows green at night was installed at a major intersection near the Londrina Brazil Temple.

Of that number, there are 11 dedicated, 4 under construction, and 9 in the planning stages. The temple in Londrina has been under construction for over 16 months.
