At the Saturday morning session of the 183rd Annual General Conference of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (often mistakenly called the Mormon Church), President and Prophet Thomas S. Monson announced the construction of Mormon temple in Cedar City, Utah.

The Cedar City Utah Temple will be the 17th in Utah, including the announced Payson Utah and Provo City Center Temples as well as the Ogden Utah Temple which is currently under renovation. There are nearly two million Church members in Utah.

Cedar City is north of St. George, Utah, where the first temple in the state was completed (the Salt Lake Temple took 40 years to build). Cedar City is the home of the University of Southern Utah, famous for its annual Shakespearean Festival, and near several national parks and ski ranges, including Zion's National Park and Brianhead Ski Resort.
