With construction of the Montpelier Idaho Temple drawing closer to completion, the welcome center has been slated for closure in the next few weeks. Walk-in hours have concluded, but appointments will still be accepted for a short time. The temple is a glorious addition to this Bear Lake community, which was settled by pioneer saints in 1863. The open house and dedication dates have not yet been announced.

The final pieces of scaffolding have been removed from the Pago Pago American Samoa Temple, bringing the dream of a temple on the island closer to reality. American Samoa was originally announced for a temple in 1977, but a location change came in 1980 when the First Presidency stated that the temple would instead be built in Samoa (on the island of Upolu) along with temples for Tonga and Tahiti. In April 2019, almost 40 years later, President Nelson announced plans for a temple in American Samoa.

Construction work has been completed by the general contractor at the San Diego California Temple, which has been under major renovation for the past two-and-a-half years. Crews have carried out repairs to the roof and window seals, refurbishment of the exterior and stained glass, and renovation of the interior, including minor reconfigurations. No dates have been announced yet for the open house and rededication.
