Guadalajara Mexico Temple

The Guadalajara Mexico Temple is a temple of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Zapopan, Jalisco, Mexico. The intent to build the temple was announced in a letter to local priesthood leaders on April 14, 1999, by the First Presidency. It is the church's 105th operating temple and the 11th temple built in Mexico, located in the country's second-largest city. The building is 71 feet tall and has a single spire with a statue of the angel Moroni on it stop, and an exterior of white marble from Torreón, Mexico. A groundbreaking ceremony, to signify the beginning of construction, was held on June 12, 1999, conducted by Eran A. Call, a general authority and president of the church's Mexico North Area. The temple was dedicated by church president Gordon B. Hinckley on April 29, 2001, his 64th wedding anniversary.
