Colorado Springs Colorado Temple
President Russell M. Nelson announced plans to construct the Colorado Springs Colorado Temple at the October 2023 General Conference of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. This will be the fourth temple in Colorado. Colorado Springs has the second-largest population in the state. Temples in operation in Colorado are the Denver Colorado Temple and the Fort Collins Colorado Temple. The Grand Junction Colorado Temple is under construction.
Colorado, in the Intermountain West of the United States, is home to nearly 150,000 Latter-day Saints in 310 congregations. The first congregation of the Church in Colorado was organized in January 1897, one year after a mission was established in the area.
Location
The Colorado Springs Colorado Temple is currently in the planning stages. It will be built on an 18.6-acre site located at the South corner of Flying Horse Club Drive and Barossa Valley Road, Colorado Springs, Colorado. Plans call for a single-story temple of approximately 45,000 square feet, a meetinghouse, and an accompanying utility building. This will be the city’s first temple.[1]
