KSL News Utah produced a video feature on the new Cleveland Temple opening more than 190 years after Latter-day Saints left Ohio. The temple represents a return to the state where significant early church history unfolded. The video gained over 9,000 views in 19 hours.
The piece examines the historical significance of building a temple in the region where the Kirtland Temple—now owned by the Community of Christ—still stands as the oldest Mormon temple structure in America.
