How Many Lds Temples In Oklahoma |
Buckle Up, Buttercup, It's Temple Time!
Oklahoma, the land of windbreakers, blue ribbons at the state fair, and...apparently, holy houses of worship! But how many temples are we talking about exactly?
Drumroll please... (cue dramatic music)
There is currently one LDS temple in Oklahoma: the Oklahoma City Oklahoma Temple, which sounds about as exciting as a beige minivan. But hey, don't knock it till you try it (temple ordinances, that is).
Reminder: Take a short break if the post feels long.
Wait, there's more! (insert commercial jingle here)
A second temple, the Tulsa Oklahoma Temple, has been announced, but construction is still on hold. So, for now, Oklahoma City holds the coveted title of Most Temple-y City in Oklahoma (not an official title, but we can dream).
Fun Facts That Will Make You Sound Smart at Parties (Probably)
- Did you know the Oklahoma City Oklahoma Temple looks like a giant white layer cake? Just don't lick it...tempting, we know.
- Oklahoma might not have a ton of temples, but it does boast a whopping eleven stakes (administrative units within the Church). That's a lot of church picnics!
- Counting temples is way more interesting than counting sheep. Science hasn't proven this, but trust us on this one.
