For more than 14 months, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has published weekly updates of temple reopenings and operational changes following closures caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.
And the Church News has provided weekly temple update and temple tracker reports each week.
The weekly updates have been a lengthy list of temple names, statuses and phase numbers. Below the Church News shares a visual look at the latest in temple operation statuses.
After completely closing all 168 of its temples worldwide in late March 2020 because of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Church began in May 2020 to reopen temples and advance their operations in a careful and cautious four-phase plan.
As of this month, all of the Church’s operating temples have reopened after the pandemic closures, with more than 80% designated to offer all living and proxy ordinances in Phase 3.
The charts and lists below contain current and projected phase status through Monday, July 19, with the Church’s next weekly update announcement expected to be Tuesday, July 20.

Phase 1 allows for limited living husband-and-wife sealings by appointment, while Phase 2 allows for those sealing as well as all other living ordinances, also by appointment. Phase 2-B offers all living ordinances and proxy baptisms, by appointment. Phase 3 includes everything from the first two phases and the performance of all temple ordinances for deceased individuals.
Temples that are “paused” have stopped operations temporarily because of local COVID-19 conditions and precautions.
And the temple districts for the six of eight temples closed for major renovations have been given Phase 3 designation so that Latter-day Saints living in those districts can schedule living and proxy ordinances in nearby temples.

Counting all the current and projected temples and districts in Phase 3 and those that have temporarily paused operations, 135 of the Church’s 168 temples — or 80.3% — are designated now to be offering all proxy ordinances.
Add in the additional temples in Phase 2-B offering proxy baptisms and confirmations and that makes 150 of the Church’s 168 temples — or 89.3% — offering at least some proxy ordinances in addition to all living ordinances.
The remaining 18 temples are either in Phase 2 (with several paused) or Phase 1 and also include the two districts of temples closed for renovations that have not been given a phase status.
