BREAKING TEMPLE NEWS: Opening Arrangements Set for the San Pedro Sula Honduras Temple

Hello again, everyone! Because yesterday (Monday) was Memorial Day in the United States, the next major temple construction announcement was deferred to today. We received word of the opening arrangements for the San Pedro Sula Honduras Temple. Let's get right into those details:

A media day will be held for this temple on Monday, September 9, with invited guests touring the temple the following two days. Public tours will be offered between Thursday, September 12, and Saturday, September 28, 2024. Two dedicatory sessions will be held for the temple at 10:00 AM and 1:30 PM CDT (Central Daylight Time), which is 9:00 AM and 12:30 PM MDT, on Sunday, October 13,  2024, under the direction of Elder Dale G. Renlund of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles.

The San Pedro Sula Honduras Temple dedication will be held on the same day as the previously announced dedication of the Casper Wyoming Temple and one week prior to the previously announced dedication of the Salvador Brazil Temple. Due to the fact that San Pedro Sula's first dedicatory session begins at 9:00 AM Mountain Daylight Time and Casper's first dedicatory session begins at 10:00 AM MDT, San Pedro Sula will be the first of the two dedicated on that date.

While there were no other major temple construction announcements today, I am grateful we at least got this announcement of the opening arrangements for the San Pedro Sula Honduras Temple. I continue to monitor any and all Church News, Newsroom, and Church of Jesus Christ Temples updates and will be sure to pass word of those along to you all as they cross my radar. In the meantime, that does it for now. 

All comments are, as always, welcome and appreciated on any post at any time, as long as the offered feedback is made per the established guidelines.

    Hello again, everyone! Before the above temple news was reported, the Church News shared apostolic ministry updates about Elders D. Todd Christofferson, Quentin L. Cook and Dieter F. Uchtdorf. My thanks once again to you all.

      I also failed to mention in my above report that today's announcement will mean that the 200th dedicated temple will be the Salvador Brazil Temple. And I have updated my document showing the history of temple dedications and rededications by each apostle during President Nelson's prophetic tenure. My thanks once again to you all.

      And tonight, construction status updates have been provided for the Deseret Peak Utah, Antofagasta Chile and Alabang Philippines Temples. Additionally, the Alabang temple has been moved ahead of the Syracuse Utah Temple, although both still have a general completion estimate of early 2025. My thanks once again to you all.

    Hey everyone, the church released the first batch of new Hymns.

    https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/study/music/hymns-for-home-and-church?lang=eng

    They have the guitar chords and a guitar accompaniment for all new hymns as well as the traditional piano sheet music/accompaniment and vocals. It doesn't look like the Church News has reported on this yet.

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.
