The Yigo Guam Temple was announced during the October 2018 Semiannual General Conference of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints on 7 October 2018, by President Russell M. Nelson.

The Yigo Guam Temple will be the first temple in Guam, an unincorporated and organized territory of the United States in Micronesia in the western Pacific Ocean. The temple will be located at the corner of Marine Corp Drive and Melalak Drive in the village of Yigo on the north end of Guam. Construction on the temple with an adjacent meetinghouse is expected to begin in 2019 and is anticipated to take about two years to complete.
