LDS church to hold open house for Boise temple
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints plans to offer tours of a newly renovated temple in Boise.
Church officials said Thursday the temple will be open to the public during an open house held between Oct. 12 and Nov. 10, except for on Sundays.
The temple will be open only to LDS believers after it is formally dedicated on Nov. 18, according to an update posted on the church’s website. Temples are considered the most sacred of LDS church buildings and are used for marriages, proxy baptisms and other ceremonies.
The temple in Boise was closed in July 2011 for renovations and is currently one of four in Idaho.
The church plans to build a fifth temple in Meridian.
