On October 1, 2023, President Russell M. Nelson announced plans to construct a temple in Huancayo, Peru.[1]
The Huancayo Peru Temple will be the first house of the Lord in the region and the ninth in the country. Huancayo’s name means “place of the rock” in the Quechua language. Huancayo is located in the Peruvian highlands about 190 miles east of Lima and is the capital of the Junín Region.[2]
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]
Other temples in operation or under construction include the Arequipa Peru Temple, Lima Peru Temple, Trujillo Peru Temple, Lima Peru Los Olivos Temple, Cusco Peru Temple, Chiclayo Peru Temple, Iquitos Peru Temple, and Piura Peru Temple.
