The public open house for the Orem Utah Temple open house begins Friday and runs through Dec. 16. Temples are the most sacred worship spaces of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
Since being founded on Oct. 16, 1875, prophets and leaders have outlined the role of Brigham Young University in the world and in the Church.
Over the next several years, Utah will be a focal point of dedications and rededications for temples of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. In fact, last month’s dedication of the Saratoga Springs Utah Temple signaled the start of an unprecedented surge of new temples dedicated and renovated temples rededicated in Utah alone. From December 2023 to the end of 2028, Utah could see at least 13 — and possibly 14 — temple dedications and rededications in that five-year period.
The Saratoga Springs temple dedication begins a wave of temple growth in Utah and is representative of the Church’s increase of temples worldwide.
The state of Utah will have 14 temple dedications or rededications over the next few years.
