Phoenix Arizona Temple

The Phoenix Arizona Temple is a planned temple of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, to be constructed in the city of Phoenix, Arizona. The announcement of the temple on May 24, 2008 came after the Gila Valley Arizona Temple, and the Gilbert Arizona Temples were announced only a month earlier, and together are the first new temples announced since Thomas S. Monson assumed responsibilities as the President of the LDS church.cite press release |title= New Temple for Phoenix Arizona Announced |publisher= LDS Church |date= 2008-05-24 |url= http://www.newsroom.lds.org/ldsnewsroom/eng/news-releases-stories/new-temple-for-phoenix-arizona-announced |format= |language= |accessdate= 2008-05-25 |quote= ] [cite news |url= http://www.mormontimes.com/WC_headquarters.php?id=1157 | title= President Monson announces another new temple in Arizona |date= 2008-05-24 |publisher= "Deseret News" / MormonTimes.com (reprinted from "Church News") |accessdate= 2008-05-25 ]

The announcement came in part as a response to the high concentration of church members in the area, and will help ease the load on the nearby Mesa Arizona Temple.
