Exciting news is just around the corner for the Willamette Valley community! Mark your calendars—starting April 23, 2026, the doors of the stunning Willamette Valley Oregon Temple will swing open for a breathtaking public open house. This highly anticipated event culminates in a special dedication service on June 7, 2026, celebrating a significant milestone in the area’s rich heritage.
This remarkable journey began on April 4, 2021, when President Russell M. Nelson unveiled plans for the temple, signaling a vibrant expansion of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Oregon, where over 154,000 members gather in more than 300 congregations.
Situated on a beautiful 10.5-acre site at 3701 Corporate Way in Springfield, the temple is an architectural marvel, featuring an awe-inspiring central spire that soars 120 feet into the sky. Inside, you’ll discover two instructional rooms, two sealing rooms, and a serene baptistry, all designed within a generous 30,000 square feet dedicated to peace and spirituality.
The groundbreaking ceremony, led by Elder Valeri V. Cordón on October 29, 2022, marked the start of this exciting new chapter for Latter-day Saints in the region, honoring a proud legacy that began with the first settlers in 1887.
Get ready to explore this beautiful new landmark in the Willamette Valley, where you can immerse yourself in the warmth of community spirit that the temple embodies!
