community of christ temple - a photo on Flickriver

The Community of Christ Temple in Independence, Missouri, is a house of worship and education "dedicated to the pursuit of peace". It dominates the skyline of Independence, Missouri, and has become the focal point of the headquarters of the Community of Christ (formerly the Reorganized Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints). The temple was built by the Community of Christ in response to a revelation presented to their 1984 World Conference by then church prophet-president Wallace B. Smith. This revelation culminated instructions shared over the course of more than 150 years by prior prophet-presidents recognized by the Community of Christ. The temple was dedicated on 17 April 1994.

Wallace B. Smith's great-grandfather and founder of the Latter-day Saint movement, Joseph Smith, visited Jackson County in 1831 and prophesied that a temple to the Lord would be built there. The early Latter-day Saints purchased a 73 acre parcel of land known as the "greater temple lot." At that time a portion of the property was dedicated as the site for a temple, and corner stones were laid. However, the church members were driven from the county before any construction began. The original temple site proper is now owned by the Church of Christ (Temple Lot).

The Community of Christ's temple is built on the greater temple lot, as is the Auditorium, and a visitor center from The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
