The Pocatello Idaho Temple was first announced during the Annual General Conference of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in April 2017 by then Church President Thomas S. Monson. This will be the sixth temple in Idaho, a state with nearly half a million members of the Church.

An artist rendering of the Pocatello Idaho Temple of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints was released on Thursday, 6 September 2018. The rendering features a three-story temple with a center spire. The temple will be located east of Satterfield Drive and Butte Street in Pocatello in a new subdivision known as Crestview Estates – Division 2. Construction on the temple is expected to begin in 2019 and will take between two and three years to complete.
