Deseret Peak Temple Groundbreaking Full Ceremony
TOOELE Tooele Valley residents turned more than soil Saturday as they ceremoniously broke ground for construction of the Deseret Peak Utah Temple of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Tooele, Utah.
With seagulls calling in the spring sky and a majestic backdrop that included running horses and all 11,000 feet of snow-capped Deseret Peak itself, church members and leaders also turned the final page on a year that included a decision to move the planned temple to Tooele from the original site in Erda, a seven-minute drive away.
