The Twin Falls Idaho Temple is the 128th worldwide for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

Titled "Living Water," the production featured dance numbers performed by youths from the 14 stakes in the temple district, which includes Twin Falls, Jerome, Burley, Rupert, Ketchum and Hailey. They celebrated the history of the area, made viable by the water flowing from the Snake River.LDS Church President Thomas S. Monson spoke to the youths and audience.
The next day, a Sunday, President Monson presided over a cornerstone ceremony and dedicatory-prayer sessions.
