Portland Temple to Be Dedicated

The First Presidency has announced that the new Portland Temple will be dedicated in eleven sessions August 19 through 21. It will be the forty-second LDS temple in operation.

Lorin Edward (Ted) Perry, a former president of the Portland West and Beaverton Oregon stakes, has been called to serve as temple president. His wife, Nelle Hunter Perry, will serve as temple matron.

The open house for the temple is scheduled from June 15 to July 8, except Sundays and July 4.
