Prophet Tells Latter-day Saints in Central Utah That a New Temple Is Coming to Ephraim

President Russell M. Nelson of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints said Saturday, May 1, that the faith will build a new temple in Ephraim, Utah.
In a prerecorded message played at a press conference inside the Manti Tabernacle (seven miles, or 11 kilometers, south of Ephraim), the prophet said the new house of the Lord will be an important addition for the Church’s growing membership in the area - including students at Snow College. “We care about their well-being and their future,” President Nelson said.
The temple in Ephraim is the 252nd temple in the Church and the 27th in Utah.

I'm very glad to hear they are keeping the Manti temple with the murals and craftsmanship as it is. I wish they had done the same with Salt Lake.

You may have missed the news that a lot of those murals had been damaged by water and time. It wasn't possible to save all of the murals.

True. However, we could’ve built it back the way it was. Instead of making it like the modern temples. I would’ve gladly donated money to help with the cost of rebuilding it. I’m excited for the Salt Lake Temple to reopen, but I’m afraid I’m going to be very sad when I walk into it and it’s very plain on the inside. So much is learned through the unique symbolism of those wonderful pioneer temples.

I love the use of the use of the word ‘impressed’.
