BREAKING TEMPLE NEWS: Possible New Name for Yuba City California Temple

Hello again, everyone! One or two of the sources to which I turn for temple information have noted a potential name change for the Yuba City California Temple. If the sources are right, that temple will now be known as the Feather River California Temple. What verification I presently have about this can be found here (via the Church of Jesus Christ Temples site) and here (on the subpage for announced temples from the official Church website). I don't yet have an official source noting that this change will stick, but will be on the lookout for one and will pass that along as I find it.

That does it for this post. Any and all comments are, as always, welcome and appreciated, on any post at any time, as long as such comments are made in accordance with the established guidelines. Thank you for the privilege of your time. If you enjoyed what you read here and would like to stay informed of newly-added content, please feel free to subscribe. Until my next post, I wish each one of you all the best and pray that the Lord will bless you all in everything you do.

  1. Hello again, everyone! In addition to noting the likely new name for the newest California Temple, I wanted to share some additional thoughts about temples for which an official name and/or a more specific location being identified is pending verification. I have recently examined additional evidence relating to the second Manila Philippines Temple, and with confirmation pending on an official name, my research shows an increased likelihood that that temple will be named for Muntinlupa City. In a similar vein, I am also in the process of examining further evidence that Moscow will be the "home base" for the Russia Temple, and that the Washington County Utah Temple will be built in the spot some have described as being Church-owned in Washington City. Having noted all of this, I wanted to reemphasize that nothing is official until the Brethren make it so through either an official annoouncement, or else an annotation on the Church's website verifies this information. That said, barring anything unexpected, I anticipate that the "Feather River" name will be one that sticks.

    I should also mention that, based on an earlier comment made on this blog by someone living in Mexico, it appears that two new stakes will be created in Puebla this weekend, that the visiting authority will be a member of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles, and that there is a possibility that confirmation will be provided regarding at least the site location for the Puebla Mexico Temple, though there is also a chace that an artist's rendering and construction time-frame could be unveiled at that time as well. Stay tuned for more on the temple side of things as I and the resources I have available learn more about this. Also, I fully anticipate that Matthew Martinich will be sharing a full and complete report on the organization of these two new stakes within the coming week or two, so you can check the Church Growth Blog for that information in the future.

    My thanks once again to you all for your ongoing interest and support.

  2. Ometoxtla (Puebla) was created this past Sunday. Elder Holland was in Puebla the entire week and before that he was in Hidalgo state. He was in the country for an extended period of time.

    There is another stake that is still pending, and it has been proposed, but there need to be more members (priesthood OK, congregations OK, FTP OK, just need more members). It would be a third stake for Nealtican.

    I can't really report on anything official RE the temple at this time. But will relay that info once I get it.

    1. Bryan, I saw your comment around an hour ago but was not able to reply to it until just now. Thanks for the information on Elder Holland's visit to Mexico. I had seen some preliminary information via Mexico's Newsroom website earlier today. I also appreciate the confirmation that a new stake in Puebla was created last Sunday. It will be interesting to see how soon that other stake is created.

      That said, although no official information has been provided on the Puebla Mexico Temple, I recall you mentioning that land has been set aside for that purpose already. I know that the location needs to be confirmed by the Church in an official announcement, but would you be able to unofficially shed light on where it might be located? We can take that information as unofficial for now, but I did wonder. Thanks for any answer you can give to that question and for taking time to comment.

In addition to my life-long love for the subjects which I cover in the posts of this blog, I have long held the belief that we can disagree without becoming disagreeable. Differences of opinion are natural, while being disagreeable in expressing those differences is not. And in that sense, I have no desire to close the door on anyone who earnestly desires to contribute to the ongoing dialogue on subjects covered in the posts on this blog.

At the same time, however, I recognize that we live in a time when incivility, discourtesy, unkindness, and even cyber-bullying has regrettably become part of online interactions. With that in mind, while anyone who wishes can comment on anything if they choose to do so, I hereby reserve the right to immediately delete any comments which are critical, unkind, lack civility, or promote prodcuts, services, and values contrary to either the Church, or to the rules of online etiquette.

I'd also like to remind all who comment here that I try to respond personally to each individual comment as I feel is appropriate. Such replies are not meant to end the conversation, but to acknowledge earnest feedback as it is submitted.

And in order to better preserve the spirit and pure intentions for which this blog was established, I also hereby request that anyone not commenting with a regular user name (particularly those whose comments appear under the "Unknown" or "Anonymous" monikers, give the rest of us a name to work with in addressing any replies. If such individuals do not wish to disclose their actual given names, a pseudonym or nickname would suffice.

Any comments made by individuals who opt to not give a name by which they can ber identified may, depending on the substance and tone of such comments, be subject to deletion as well. I would respectfully ask that all of us do all we can to keep the dialogue positive, polite, and without malice or ill-will. May the Lord bless us all in our discussion of these important matters.
