Juchitán de Zaragoza Mexico Temple
During his general conference message on October 6, 2024, President Russell M. Nelson announced plans to construct a temple in Juchitán de Zaragoza, Mexico. The Juchitán de Zaragoza Mexico Temple is one of seventeen newly announced temples of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.[1]
Juchitán lies on the southeast coast of Oaxaca, a state on the Pacific side of southern Mexico. The Juchitán Mexico Temple will be the 26th house of the Lord in the country, and the second in Oaxaca, with the Oaxaca Mexico Temple 276 kilometers away, a drive of about five hours.[2]
Mexico has more than 1.5 million Latter-day Saints in nearly 1,900 congregations. Missionary work began in Mexico in 1875.
Location
The Juchitán de Zaragoza Mexico Temple is currently in the planning stages. The specific location will be announced later.
