Snowflake Mormon Temple – Snowflake, Arizona

The Mormon Snowflake Temple sits on the west end of town on top of a bluff scattered with cedar trees.  Unlike many other recently constructed temples, the temple does not share property with a stake center or Church meetinghouse but is adjacent to a golf course.

This is a two level temple.  The temple district includes Arizona stakes in Snowflake, Taylor, Eagar, St. Johns, Pinetop/Lakeside, Show Low, Flagstaff, Tuba City, Holbrook, Winslow and China.

There is a beautiful water feature at the entrance to the temple.  The whole setting is really a serine place with a beautiful view.

The Snowflake Arizona Temple serves 35,000 Mormon members, many of them descendants of the first pioneers to the area. 

The exterior of the temple is finished with two tons of polished Empress White and Majestic Grey granite from China.  The temple has a total of 18,621 sq ft., two ordinance rooms, and two sealing rooms.  It is Arizona‘s second temple, the other is in Mesa.

The interior treatments reflect the history and culture of the area.  Much of the furniture has a pioneer appearance; several were custom built including some that have Native American designs carved into them.  Native American patterns appear as painted stencil work on walls and sculpted into the carpet.
