An Aerial Perspective of the Tarawa Kiribati Temple
With an average width of only 450 meters (500 yards) and rising some 3 meters (10 feet) above sea level, South Tarawa is a string of coral islets in the South Pacific that offer a unique setting for a temple of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. The Tarawa Kiribati Temple is being assembled with prefabricated modules. The majority of the module's interior is completed in the factory, leaving about 30 percent of the finish work to take place on site. In addition to constructing a temple, the Church is supporting the residents of Kiribati by providing solar-powered desalination plants that produce clean drinking water.
