Following the 1893 dedication of the Salt Lake Temple, LDS Church members waited almost a century for a second temple — the Jordan River Temple — to be opened in the Salt Lake Valley. Almost three decades passed before the Draper Utah Temple became No. 3.

Now, just weeks after the dedication of the Draper edifice, the valley's fourth temple is all but finished. The doors of the Oquirrh Mountain Utah Temple will soon open for public tours. The open house begins June 1 and will run through Aug. 1, except July 4, July 24 and Sundays.
