Elder Renlund Dedicates the San Luis Potosí Mexico Temple
Elder Dale G. Renlund of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles dedicated the San Luis Potosí Mexico Temple on Sunday, November 1, 2026. San Luis Potosí was established over 400 years ago following the discovery of silver deposits. The region is also full of rivers, springs, and waterfalls. "For centuries, people have come to the state of San Luis Potosí seeking treasures from the earth, life-giving water from its rivers, and connection to other communities. Today the Lord adds yet another reason for people to come — a holy temple," said Elder Renlund.
