During his general conference closing message on April 7, 2023, President Russell M. Nelson announced plans to construct a temple in Yuma, Arizona. The Yuma Arizona Temple is one of fifteen newly announced temples of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.[1]

The Yuma Arizona Temple will be the seventh house of the Lord operating, under construction, or announced in this southwestern state.

Beginning in the 1850s, Latter-day Saints occasionally traveled from the Utah Territory to preach the restored gospel and to explore the possibility of permanent settlements in Arizona. The Mesa Arizona Temple, the first in Arizona, was dedicated in October 1927.

There are more than 440,000 Latter-day Saints in the state in around 925 congregations.
