An open house was held for community members living near the Lethbridge Alberta Temple site on January 16, 2025. Lethbridge Mayor Blaine Hyggen was in attendance with three members of the Lethbridge City Council. He said: "The construction of the Lethbridge Alberta Temple is a profound honour for our city, reflecting the rich tapestry of faith, unity and progress that defines our community. This remarkable edifice is not only a sacred space for the local Latter-day Saint members but also a beacon of opportunity and inspiration for all residents. We are proud to embrace this extraordinary addition to our city, one that will leave a lasting legacy for generations to come."

Before a formal groundbreaking is announced, preliminary construction will be carried out including stubbing utilities, removing excess soil, and grading the property. Repairs to Mauretania Road will also be needed where the utility connections are made. "We are excited for this first step in the process of building a house of the Lord in Lethbridge," said Elder David C. Stewart, Area Seventy. Designs for the temple are still being finalized.
