At a Christmas devotional held for Latter-day Saints and friends of the Portland Maine Stake on Sunday, December 14, 2025, Elder Allen D. Haynie, United States Northeast Area President, read an announcement from the First Presidency of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints of a temple to be built in Portland, Maine.
"We are pleased to announce the construction of a temple in Portland, Maine. The specific location and timing of the construction will be announced later. This is a reason for all of us to rejoice and thank God for such a significant blessing—one that will allow more frequent access to the ordinances, covenants, and power that can only be found in the house of the Lord."—The First Presidency
This announcement brings the total number of temples—operating, under construction, or announced worldwide—to 383. It will be the first temple in Maine.

I have ordered the flags of the United States of America and the great state of Utah to be flown at half-staff on all state facilities in recognition of the tragic passing of Charlie Kirk, who was shot and killed this afternoon while speaking at Utah Valley University.
Flags should be lowered to the half-staff position and remain in the half-staff position until sunset on Sunday, September 14th, 2025.
I extend this invitation to all private citizens, businesses, and other organizations.
As a newly called Apostle, I felt the importance of sharing my witness of Jesus Christ’s literal Resurrection. Now, 41 years later, the urgency I feel is even greater.
On this Easter Sunday, I express my gratitude, reverence, and awe for the Savior’s Resurrection. This was the crowning culmination of His Atonement and the source of the greatest joy any of us will ever know.
It is my prayer that today, we can all feel the greater love that comes from knowing that Jesus Christ lives and has made eternal life possible for all who will follow Him. #GreaterLove
Is there anything sweeter, more pure, or more humble than a child at prayer? It is as if heaven is in the room.
Children really do love Jesus Christ, and that love can carry over into their other relationships in the playground of life. As a rule, even in their youngest years, children love so easily, forgive so readily, and laugh so delightfully, that even the coldest, hardest heart can melt.
Let us follow the Savior’s counsel: “Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven. Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is greatest in the kingdom of heaven” (Matthew 18:3–4). #GeneralConference
