BREAKING TEMPLE NEWS: Artist's Rendering Released for the Alabang Philippines Temple

Hello again, everyone! Two big days of temple developments in a row have occurred. Just yesterday, the open house and dedication information were announced for the Rio de Janeiro Brazil Temple. Then this morning, the Church of Jesus Christ Temples site reported the release of the artist's rendering for the Alabang Philippines Temple. I could not find that confirmed anywhere in new content posted on the Church's official Headquarters Newsroom or the Philippines edition thereof. But a little more digging on my part led me to realize that an earlier release from the Philippines Newsroom had been updated to show the rendering for that temple in question.
The really confusing thing is that, while the rendering was included in that article at some point earlier today, there was nothing on that Philippines Newsroom release to indicate that the rendering had been added thereunto today. Above and beyond that, however, after my analysis of the Alabang Philippines Temple rendering, I believe some elements thereof are reminiscent of the temples in Port-au-Prince Haiti and Kinshasa DR Congo, but I will defer to the analysis of others on the degree to which that is the case.

In the meantime, I have recently offered updates on my more specific estimates for known temple events in the near future, and I don't see this new information altering the estimate I have most-recently offered for the Alabang Philippines Temple. I continue to monitor all Church news and temple updates and will do my level best to pass word of those along to you all as I receive them. That does it for now.
