Precast concrete panels continue to be installed across the exterior of the Tampa Florida Temple, giving the building greater definition and steadily enclosing its structural frame. Inside, construction is advancing in the basement, where interior framing is underway alongside the installation of mechanical, plumbing, and electrical systems. The concrete base for the baptismal font has also been poured, establishing the foundation for one of the principal ordinance spaces.

A welcome center trailer now stands at the site of the Cincinnati Ohio Temple, providing a future gathering place for visitors. The trailer is not yet in use, as construction of the temple has not begun. Meanwhile, crews have been carrying out preliminary site development and preparation work for several months, gradually transforming the property ahead of construction. A date for the temple’s groundbreaking has not yet been announced.

"The temple is a place of spiritual guidance, peace, hope and revelation," said Elder Karl D. Hirst of the United States Central Area Presidency at the groundbreaking ceremony for the Colorado Springs Colorado Temple on Saturday, September 12, 2026.

When the temple is dedicated, it will be the fourth operating temple in the state.

Rising above the low-lying landscape of South Tarawa, the steeple framework for the Tarawa Kiribati Temple has been installed above the north end of the prefabricated modules. The new steel structure adds a distinctive vertical element to the temple, which is becoming a prominent landmark for the local Latter-day Saint community. Additional steel members are staged on site as framing continues.
