Hello again, everyone! This morning, a new report from the Newsroom, verified also by the Church News and through the updated status tracker, indicates that the Barranquilla Colombia Temple, which had been in phase 2-B, is scheduled to transition to phase 3 as early as next Tuesday, March 15.
This means that, with the exception of the Kyiv Ukraine Temple, for which the closure is still in effect, the remaining 169 temples in the Church will be in phase 3. With 8 temples closed for major renovations, all 8 temple districts have been designated as open in phase 3.
1 temple (Kyiv Ukraine) is paused/suspended in its' reopening pending the outcome of the current Russian invasion. 1 temple (Suva Fiji) remains in phase 1. And with 0 in phase 2 or 2-B, the remaining 160 are in phase 3. I am grateful for the Church's thoughtful, thorough, carefully planned, and cautiously coordinated effort to reopen temples.
While it is uncertain for the present time how soon any temples might transition to phase 4 (normal operations), we have clearly seen the hand of the Lord in what has unfolded within the last 2 years of temple developments. I look forward to seeing what happens in the near and more distant future. In the meantime, I continue to also monitor all Church News updates and will bring word of those to you all as I become aware thereof.
