During the 192nd Semiannual General Conference of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, on October 2, 2022, President Russell M. Nelson announced plans to construct a fifth temple in the highlands of western Guatemala. The new temple will join the Guatemala City Guatemala Temple (1984), the Quetzaltenango Guatemala Temple (2011), the Cobán Guatemala Temple, and the Miraflores Guatemala City Guatemala Temple.

Guatemala is home to nearly 300,000 Latter-day Saints organized into 51 stakes and 12 districts. The first missionaries were sent to preach the gospel in Guatemala in 1947 with the first official church meeting of 66 congregants occurring the next year in a rented hall.
