On October 1, 2023, President Russell M. Nelson announced plans to construct a temple in Huancayo, Peru.[1]

The first missionaries arrived in the country in 1956. The country is home to approximately 625,000 Latter-day Saints spread throughout more than 775 congregations. More than 32 million people live in Peru.[3]
