Kahului Hawaii Temple
The First Presidency of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has announced the location of the Kahului Hawaii Temple.
This temple will be constructed on a 7.6-acre site located along Kuikahi Drive next to an existing meetinghouse at 1300 Maui Lani Parkway, Kahului, Hawaii. Plans call for a single-story temple of 19,000 square feet and an accompanying ancillary building. This will be the city’s first temple and the first on the island of Maui.
Hawaii is home to more than 76,000 Latter-day Saints in over 140 congregations.
Besides the Kahului Hawaii Temple, there are three additional temples announced, under construction or in operation in Hawaii: Honolulu, Kona, and Laie.
The Kahului Hawaii Temple was announced in October 2023 by President Nelson.
“Spending more time in the temple builds faith,” he said. “There you are drawn closer to the Savior and given greater access to His power. There you are guided in solving the problems in your life, even your most perplexing problems.”
