North Shore NewsOne hundred years ago, President Heber J. Grant of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latterday Saints dedicated the Laie Hawaii Temple on Thanksgiving Day, November 27, 1919. Until the Church changed its temple naming policy in the late 1990s, it was known as the Hawaii Temple.
This magnificent structure on a tropical hill overlooking the Pacific Ocean, was only the Church’s fifth
temple, first to be built outside the continental United States. For many of its earlier years, the Laie
Hawaii Temple also served Latterday Saints in all of the South Pacific Islands and Asia.
Millions of people from around the world have visited the beautiful Laie Hawaii Temple grounds.
To help mark this historic milestone-the Laie Hawaii Temple centennial committee has set up a website which includes an event calendar and a photo galleryhttps://laietemple100.org
