In an unexpected announcement during the women’s session of the 189th Semiannual General Conference, President Nelson surprisingly announced that eight new temples will be built! They will be located in:
Freetown, Sierra Leone
Orem, Utah
Port Moresby, Papua New Guinea
Bentonville, Arkansas
Bacolod, Philippines
McAllen, Texas
Coban, Guatemala
Taylorsville, Utah
Since becoming the 17th President of The Church, President Nelson has announced 35 temples, including tonight’s announcement. During the announcement, President Nelson also reflected that the vast majority of the announced temples are to be built outside of the United States. What an amazing time of growth for the Church!
