The Cleveland Ohio Temple, dedicated this week, stands as Ohio's newest temple while the state is also home to the Kirtland Temple, the oldest existing temple built by the early Latter-day Saint movement in the 1830s. The AP News story explores this historical bookend: Kirtland represents the church's earliest period under Joseph Smith, while the new Cleveland temple reflects the modern global institution. The Kirtland Temple is now owned by Community of Christ (formerly the Reorganized Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints) and operates as a historic site, while the new temple will serve active LDS members in northeast Ohio.
