Reynosa Mexico Temple
During his general conference message on April 6, 2025, President Russell M. Nelson announced plans to construct a temple in Reynosa, Mexico. The Reynosa Mexico Temple is one of fifteen new temples of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.[1]
The Reynosa Mexico Temple will be the 27th house of the Lord in the country. Reynosa is located on the southern bank of the Rio Grande River across the Mexico–United States border from Hidalgo, Texas.
Mexico is home to more than 1.5 million Latter-day Saints in nearly 1,900 congregations, the second largest membership outside of the United States. Missionary work began in Mexico in 1875.
Sonia Cardenas, a Latter-day Saint from Madero, Mexico, who attended the Sunday afternoon session, said this new temple is the answer to many prayers, and it’s special because “the people need it.” This is evidence that God is watching over His children in these kinds of locations around the world. “This is going to be a refuge for them because they have many problems there,” she said, standing outside the Conference Center. “They need something close so they can go to the temple and not be in danger. I am so happy for all the people there.”[2]
