Wellington new Zealand Temple in the Early Phases of Construction

Construction is advancing on the Wellington New Zealand Temple, where early site development has transitioned into foundation work. Crews have been actively engaged in drilling and excavation as they focus on establishing a strong structural base to support the two-story temple of approximately 1,385 square meters (14,900 square feet). Once completed, it will be the third house of the Lord in New Zealand.

Extensive Renovations Progressing at the Orlando Florida Temple

For nearly two decades, the Orlando Florida Temple stood as the only Latter-day Saint temple in the Sunshine State. In 2014, a second temple was dedicated in Fort Lauderdale. A decade later, the Orlando temple closed for major renovation just months before a third temple was dedicated in the state capital of Tallahassee. Today, two additional temples are under construction in Tampa and Jacksonville, while many months of renovation work still lie ahead for the Orlando Temple.

Light Fixtures Installed at the Modesto California Temple Entrance

The beautiful arched entrance to the Modesto California Temple has been adorned with wall-mounted lanterns, complemented by a central hanging lantern suspended beneath the portico. Art glass is featured in the entrance doors, echoing the design of the dramatic art-glass windows above, adding depth and visual interest to the façade. The temple is entering the final months of construction, though no dates have been announced for the open house or dedication.

Cladding the Steeple of the Querétaro Mexico Temple

A spectacular purple sunset provides a vivid backdrop to the Querétaro Mexico Temple, where exterior cladding efforts have now reached the steeple. Precast panels are carefully lifted and positioned with a crane, allowing crews to continue enclosing the structure with precision and efficiency. Decorative grilles have also been installed over many of the windows, adding both visual interest and architectural refinement.
