The Temple in Johannesburg is surely an answer to prayer, but it also sets up the foundation for the future of the church in Africa. As the first temple in Africa it was the most geographically remote temple for many years. And it was the furthest from Salt Lake City in the world. We are grateful for the history of the Saints in this area, and we are more excited for the future of the church as missionary work takes off, we are sure the future holds miracles across that great continent!

The Santiago Chile Temple was announced just 24 years after the Chilean mission was established. Church growth has been extremely fast and abundant in this lovely country. When the Chile Mission was organized in 1956, the country had just over 600 members. In less than two decades, there were four missions and nearly 100,000 members. By the year 2000, there were over half a million Latter-day Saints in Chile, more than 3 percent of Chile’s population. This was the highest proportion anywhere in Latin America.  ⁠#churchofjesuschristtemples⁠ ⁠#templesofutah⁠ ⁠#temple⁠ ⁠#ldstemples⁠ ⁠#podcast⁠ ⁠#everytemplepodcast⁠ ⁠#lds⁠ ⁠#ldstemples⁠ ⁠#latterdaysaints⁠ ⁠#churchofjesuschrist⁠ ⁠#mormon⁠ ⁠#churchhistorymatters⁠ ⁠#church⁠ ⁠#podcast⁠ ⁠#gordonbhinckley⁠ ⁠#russellmnelson #santiagochile #Santiagotemple

The Nuku’alofa Tonga Temple is an answer to prayer! The temple was announced in 1980, and when the people heard it, they wept. The members there were so willing to sacrifice to get to their nearest temple, they sold everything they could to travel to Hawaii or New Zealand. Since this temple opened, it has been well-used, and well-loved. ⁠#churchofjesuschristtemples⁠ ⁠#templesofutah⁠ ⁠#temple⁠ ⁠#ldstemples⁠ ⁠#podcast⁠ ⁠#everytemplepodcast⁠ ⁠#lds⁠ ⁠#ldstemples⁠ ⁠#latterdaysaints⁠ ⁠#churchofjesuschrist⁠ ⁠#mormon⁠ ⁠#churchhistorymatters⁠ ⁠#church⁠ ⁠#podcast⁠ ⁠#gordonbhinckley⁠ ⁠#russellmnelson
