Yigo Guam Temple

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints builds temples all around the world where faithful members go to learn more of Jesus Christ and his plan, receive ordinances for themselves, and perform vicarious work for their deceased ancestors. These temples are beautifully constructed both inside and out. They are designed to direct our thoughts heavenward and seal families together for eternity. The redemptive work that is performed here is not to be found anywhere else on the earth. All people are invited to experience for themselves the grandeur and blessings of temple work by qualifying themselves to enter the House of the Lord.  In the meantime, I'll be taking you through the A to Z of our temples.


YIGO GUAM TEMPLE

The Yigo Guam Temple was announced in October 2018 and the Groundbreaking Ceremony will take place on 4th May, 2019. The temple will be built on the site of the Yigo meetinghouse, which is being demolished to make way for the temple, and a new chapel will then be built in the vicinity.

The tiny island of Guam is a U.S. Territory in the western Pacific Ocean with a population of just 166,000. The Yigo Guam Temple will be the first in Micronesia. It is a small temple (one ordinance room and one sealing room) and will serve a population of around 2,500 church members on Guam.
