In his closing remarks at the 193rd Annual General Conference of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, President Russell M. Nelson announced plans to construct a temple in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania.
The Harrisburg Pennsylvania Temple is the third temple announced in the state of Pennsylvania. Missionaries first arrived in Washington in 1854. Today, the state is home to more than 53,000 Latter-day Saints in 107 wards and branches.
Harrisburg, the state capital of Pennsylvania, is found in the Susquehanna Valley in south-central Pennsylvania. The Philadelphia Pennsylvania Temple was dedicated in September 2016 by President Henry B. Eyring of the First Presidency. The Pittsburgh Pennsylvania Temple was dedicated by Elder Dieter F. Uchtdorf in September 2024.
Pennsylvania is home to more than 52,000 Latter-day Saints in more than 100 congregations. The state was host to many significant events in the early days of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Much of the Book of Mormon was translated in the town of Harmony, and the first members of the Church were baptized in the Susquehanna River in May 1829.[1]
