Cebu Philippines Temple

Cebu Philippines Temple

Announced in 2006, the Cebu Philippines Temple of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is under construction. Located in Lehug in Cebu City, it will be the second LDS temple in the Philippines.

The plans to build a temple in Cebu City were announced by the LDS Church to local church leaders on 2006-04-18. ["Temple announced: Cebu, Philippines, will be site for sacred edifice," "Church News", 29 April 2006, p. 2.] Ground was broken and the site was dedicated on 2007-11-14 by Dallin H. Oaks, a member of the church's Quorum of the Twelve Apostles. [Cherry Baluyot, "Cebu temple — Groundbreaking in Philippines," "Church News", 2007-11-17, p. 5.]

The temple is being built on an 11 acre site that it will share with a church meetinghouse, residences for the temple president and mission president, and a mission office. [ [http://www.ldschurchtemples.com/cebu/ Cebu Philippines LDS (Mormon) Temple] .]
