Fortcollinstemplegroundbreaking

After two years of planning, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints will break ground for its new temple in Fort Collins, Colorado on August 24, 2013.

Though the groundbreaking ceremony will be by invitation only, it will be broadcast via satellite to LDS stake centers in the temple district, which includes northern Colorado, southern Wyoming and western Nebraska.

The 30,389-square-foot temple is scheduled for completion in mid-2015.
