ST. GEORGE — After nearly four years of renovations and upgrades to the St. George Utah Temple, the First Presidency of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints announced Monday that the temple will be rededicated in December.
St. George News is reporting that the St. George Temple, which closed in November 2019 for renovations, will be rededicated Dec. 10 in two sessions. Prior to the rededication, a public open house will run from Sept. 15 through Nov. 11, excluding Sundays and Saturday, Sept. 30, when the church holds the fall session of its semiannual general conference, according to a press release from the church.
The dedicatory sessions will be broadcast to all congregations in the St. George Utah Temple district.
The St. George Temple is one of three pioneer-era Utah temples that the LDS church closed for renovation. The other two are the well-known Salt Lake City Utah Temple and Manti Utah Temple.
