President Russell M. Nelson announced Friday, Feb. 14, the open house dates for the reopening of the Salt Lake Temple.
The temple will open to the public from April to October 2027. In a social media post, President Nelson wrote, “A current and comprehensive renovation to strengthen this sacred house of the Lord for future generations is now nearing completion. We warmly invite our friends to come and learn about God’s plan for His children and rejoice in the love of Jesus Christ.”
When he announced the temple’s renovations in 2019, President Nelson said the renovations would “emphasize and highlight the life, ministry and mission of Jesus Christ in His desire to bless every nation, kindred, tongue and people.”
His invitation for friends around the world to come to the open house will allow them to see how temples can help individuals focus their lives more fully on the Savior.
The open house news comes 172 years to the day after the temple’s groundbreaking on Feb. 14, 1853, which President Brigham Young said was “one of the most solemn, interesting, joyful, and glorious occasions, that ever has, or will transpire among the children of men.”
More details forthcoming!
