The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints announced Oct. 6 that 17 new temples would be built, including one in Arizona.

President Russell M. Nelson announced the construction of a new temple in Queen Creek during the Church’s October 2024 general conference.

“Why are we building temples at such an unprecedented pace?” Nelson said in a press release. “Why? Because the Lord told us to. The blessings of the Temple help gather Israel on both sides of the veil. These blessings also help prepare a people who will help prepare the world for the Second Coming to prepare the Lord!”

“Latter-day Saints view temples as the Lord’s house and the holiest places of worship on earth,” the church said in a press release. “The primary purpose of temples is that faithful members of the Church may receive peace, inspiration, and spiritual strength as they make sacred covenants with God in His holy house.”
