Stone panel cladding of the Ribeirão Preto Brazil Temple has reached the base of the tower. Crews have erected scaffolding around the steeple frame where the work of cladding will continue. On the temple grounds, landscaping is moving forward. A wide variety of trees, plants, and flowers will be planted, creating a haven where patrons and guests can appreciate the beauty of God's creations.

At the Querétaro Mexico Temple site, more precast concrete cladding panels have been installed in the recessed area above the entrance opening. The telescoping cranes in the foreground are used to hoist the heavy panels into place. The bright white exterior of this sacred structure stands out against the blue skies as a visible symbol of faith in the Lord, Jesus Christ. The temple has been under construction for 38 months.

After months of waiting for its arrival, the cupola for the Cleveland Ohio Temple was delivered this week and installed atop the tower, marking the completion of major construction. The landscaping will be refreshed in the spring, and finishing touches will be applied over the coming months as the building is prepared for an open house and dedication. As of yet, no dates have been announced for these opening events.

Work is progressing on building the pile-supported foundation for the Tacloban City Philippines Temple. The two-story building will rise against a tree-covered hillside overlooking Tacloban Bypass Road on the western edge of the city. Heavy equipment is used to carry out the earthworks and excavation. Construction of the temple formally began over a year ago with a groundbreaking held in January 2025.
