Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints Confirms Additional Adjustments To Temple Work Worldwide

SALT LAKE CITY-Late Wednesday evening, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints confirmed additional adjustments relating to temple work amid the COVID-19 outbreak.

-Temples will only accept appointments for living ordinances from members residing within the local temple district.

-In states, provinces or regions with multiple temples, these temples can accept appointments for living ordinances from members within these states, provinces or regions.

-This applies retroactively to previously scheduled appointments. Temple staff will contact all of those affected to answer questions and cancel or reschedule appointments.

-Temple staff will also attempt to contact those scheduled for living ordinances the day before their appointment. This is to ensure no members of the patron’s attending party are showing any symptoms of COVID-19.

-Members showing symptoms of COVID-19 should not attend the temple.

These policies are effective immediately and will continue until further notice, as confirmed by Church leaders.
