LDS Church Releases Vancouver WA Temple Exterior Rendering
Salt Lake City, UT — The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints released a rendering of the Vancouver Washington Temple Tuesday.
The architectural rendering release comes less than a year after the church announced a temple would be built in the area, and just six months after the site location was announced. The temple is designed to serve the needs of church members in the Vancouver area in and around Southwest Washington.
Projected as a multistory temple of approximately 43,000 square feet, the Vancouver temple will sit on a 15.11-acre site at the northwest corner of the intersection of SE 20th Street and SE Bybee Road in Camas, Washington, just east of Vancouver.
More information on the new temple — including a date for its groundbreaking — will be released at a later date.
Washington is home to more than 281,000 Latter-day Saints in nearly 490 congregations and four operating temples — the Seattle Washington Temple (dedicated in 1980), the Spokane Washington Temple (1999), the Columbia River Washington Temple (2001) in Richland in the south-central Tri-Cities area, and the recently dedicated Moses Lake Washington Temple (2023). A temple for Tacoma was announced at the faith’s October 2022 General Conference.
Oh, goody. Another big building by the Mo-Mos (short for Mormons). These people are even crazier than the Christians and Catholics. Which ain’t saying much. But I’ll toast a cup of coffee to these weirdos. 😉
Really a lousy contributor to the community. Only serves a few and exclusionary.
Who designs these things? what an eye sore
Because our days are numbered, every human soul has a material interest in the power of the resurrection of our Creator, Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. And, because we fall short of what we have received from Him, every human soul also has a material interest in His redemption. He has commanded all mankind to repent, enter in by the straight gate and narrow way, and endure in faith in Him to end of our days that we may have eternal life. He has commanded us that we must pray always to the Father in the name of Christ lest we enter into temptation; for Satan desires to have us that he may sift us as wheat. I trust that when most if not all of us are brought forth from the dust on that great and last day to stand before the pleasing bar of the great Jehovah that we will be found among the righteous through His atoning blood, including my fellow contributors to Lacamas Magazine. I believe in Jesus Christ. God bless.
