## Resource

A massive new LDS temple is breaking ground in Colorado Springs, spanning 45,000 square feet across 18 acres and set to serve over 20,000 members—adding to three existing temples in the state. After navigating design debates and city council approval, construction is underway with a projected 2029 completion. The temple will slash commute times for congregants currently traveling hours to Denver, while its serene grounds will welcome all seeking quiet reflection. Even Senator John Hickenlooper joined the ceremony, praising the church’s community outreach. This isn’t just a building—it’s a spiritual anchor for the region.
