Santiago Dominican Republic Temple

During his general conference message on October 6, 2024, President Russell M. Nelson announced plans to construct a temple in Santiago, Dominican Republic. The Santiago Dominican Republic Temple is one of seventeen newly announced temples of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. [1]

The temple in Santiago — the second-largest city in the Caribbean nation — will be the Dominican Republic’s second house of the Lord, following the dedication in 2000 of the Santo Domingo Dominican Republic Temple. Nearly 150,000 Latter-day Saints in more than 200 congregations reside in the Dominican Republic.

Location

The Santiago Dominican Republic Temple is currently in the planning stages. The specific location will be announced later.
