Tower Walls in Place for the Belo Horizonte Brazil Temple
Concrete forms have been stripped away from the walls of the central tower that rises over the Belo Horizonte Brazil Temple. Two tiers of window openings are present on all four sides of the tower. The roof planned for the structure will be roughly pyramidal in shape and topped with a finial. Early work is also underway on the terraced landscaping planned for the grounds that slope behind the temple toward the street.
Modular Units for the Cody Wyoming Temple Moved
The white modular units for the Cody Wyoming Temple that have been stored behind the Y-Tex building on Big Horn Avenue for the past year are being moved to private property adjacent to the temple site. "The church is not yet commencing construction of the temple," said President Edwards, Second Counselor in the Cody Wyoming Stake. Rather, the land where the modules were being stored is needed for a planned expansion, according to owner Glenn Nielson. The community dispute over the planned location for the temple has quieted down over the past few months, as lawsuits have been considered by a district judge. However, the judge is expected to conduct a hearing and issue a decision later this month.
Structural Frame Rising for the Freetown Sierra Leone Temple
A satellite image taken last month of the Freetown Sierra Leone Temple site shows the progress being made on building the load-bearing walls and posts for the temple and ancillary building. A roof is being installed over the temple, starting on the west side, and the support for the baptismal font is visible on the east. The walls for the two-story ancillary building are nearly finished where patrons will have arrival and housing facilities.
