Mormon Temple on Oahu Showcases Hawaii Mission History
The Honolulu temple near Lale, a 150000 dollar limestone structure on Oahu, marks seventy years of LDS activity in Hawaii. Since 1850 missionaries, including George Q. Cannon and Joseph F. Smith, built a church with over 60 worship sites and about 10000 natives, plus a sugar plantation empire and 800 acres of land. The temple mirrors Solomon’s Temple in a Greek cross plan, with lava stone, oak interior work, and allegorical murals. It is the seventh LDS temple, joining others in Salt Lake City, Logan, St. George, and Manti.
