During the recent General Conference, President Russell M. Nelson unveiled plans for the construction of 17 new temples, including locations in Price and central Utah. The announcement is part of a broader global temple building initiative by the LDS Church, which continues to push forward despite facing opposition in places like Las Vegas. The faith's commitment to expand its temple presence is evident, even as it encounters varying levels of local reception. This latest addition brings the total number of temples in development to 168, highlighting the Church's ongoing efforts to grow its influence worldwide.
