BREAKING TEMPLE NEWS: Rendering Released for Farmington New Mexico Temple

Hello aagain, everyone! As some of you might recall, the site location for the Farmington New MexicoTemple on June 23, Although the exterior renderings have since been releaased for Grand Junction Colorado and Burley Idaho, Farmington has not yet had a rendering released up to this point. The wait on that temple's rendering  is now over, in view of this mroning's announcement relative to that announcement. 

Although this temple is roughly the same sizes as the Grand Junction Colorado Temple, the design reminds me very much of a scaled-up version of the renderungs for Elko Nevada, Casper Wyoming, and Helena Montana, which suggests to me that the modular design of smaller temples of a similar size could als use the modular design.

I am grateful to have heard this news and been able to pass that along to you all here. I continue to monitor temple milestonesi and other reported developments, and will be sure to pass that information along to you all as I become aware thereof.

That does it for now. 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.

  1. Hello again, everyone! When I originally published this update, it had been under today's date, just prior to the report on temple reopening. But a closer review of the announcement in question actually shows that the temple rendering was released yesterday:

    As a result of that clarification, I have antedated this post to yesterday, when the news release was originally published. This did not affect the order of the posts, but I wanted to note that in any case.

    Additionally, the Church News has shared coverage of that development, but with my discovery that the announcement was actually made yesterday, both the Church News and the Church Temples site page still list today as the date of the release of this exterior rendering:

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.
