Exciting news for the faithful and curious alike—introducing the Flagstaff Arizona Temple! This sacred Temple, beautifully situated off Butler Avenue and South Fourth Street, will soon grace the picturesque landscape of Flagstaff, Arizona.
Announced by Prophet Russell M. Nelson on April 6, 2025, during the 195th Annual General Conference, the Flagstaff Arizona Temple marks a significant milestone as the ninth temple for the state of Arizona. With a sprawling footprint of 18,850 square feet encompassing 10.43 acres of serene grounds, the Temple will rise majestically at an elevation of 6,828 feet, offering breathtaking views of the surrounding mountains.
While there’s no official rendering released yet to the public, the excitement continues to build as we await more details, including the groundbreaking and site dedication dates—information that has not yet been unveiled.
It’s fascinating to note that at the time of this announcement, there were approximately 450,000 members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Arizona, supported by over 925 congregations. The church’s beginnings in the state can be traced back to the winter of 1846 when the first members arrived, paving the way for decades of growth and community.
