Elder Patrick Kearon of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles dedicated the Wichita Kansas Temple on Sunday, November 1, in a ceremony attended by local Latter-day Saints. The dedication followed a public open house period that allowed community members to tour the building.

The Wichita temple is the second in Kansas and serves Latter-day Saint congregations across the state and neighboring regions. The dedication represents the completion of a multi-year construction process in the city.

Temple dedications are ceremonial events where Church leaders formally set apart the building for religious ordinances. The Wichita dedication was one of two temple dedications conducted by Church apostles over the weekend.
