Giving Feedback on the Manti Temple Renovation

There are a few ways that interested parties can give feedback to the Church about the upcoming Manti Temple renovation:

  1. There is a Facebook page with updates on ways to get involved, and notification of upcoming events:  

    https://www.facebook.com/preservethemantitemple

  2. The First Presidency has requested a report on concerns about the renovation of the Manti temple

    Anyone who would like to share their concerns about the renovation can email Brother Juan Becerra 

    (JTBecerra@ChurchofJesusChrist.org), and their message will be included in the report to the First Presidency. 

    (Please avoid being critical--effective letters and messages will focus on the meaning of the

     temple to you and its history, and desires for a more sensitive renovation.)

  3. Talk to your Bishop and Stake President.  Let them know your concerns about the plans for the Manti Temple, and ask them to pass your concerns up the chain of authority. It is especially helpful if you also write them a letter, so they can pass your concerns along to the Area Authorities without error or distortion.

  4. Send a copy of your letter to:

Church Office Building

Public Affairs

50 East North Temple

Salt Lake City, Utah 84150

  1. Send your letter via email to: RobertsSS@churchofjesuschrist.org.

  2. Call 801-240-1000 and ask for Tom Owen, who is tasked by the Church to take calls about the Manti Temple project.

     

And if you want, you can sign the petition to preserve the Manti Temple here:

  2. Email to JTBeceerra@ChurchofJesusChrist.org is being rejected by the mail server. I would guess they no longer want to receive feedback that way.
