Colonia Juárez Chihuahua México Temple, Mormon temple in Colonia Juárez, Mexico.

The Colonia Juárez Chihuahua Mexico Temple is a single-story building on a hillside overlooking Juárez Academy, clad in white marble quarried in Durango and topped by a central spire with a statue of the angel Moroni. Its interior, with Spanish-colonial influence, holds one ordinance room, one sealing room and a baptistry whose font rests on twelve oxen.

The project was announced in October 1997 and construction began in March 1998. The dedication ceremony took place on March 6, 1999.

The temple stands in a region settled by Latter-day Saints from Utah and Arizona starting in 1875; Colonia Juárez was founded in 1885, and the Juárez Stake, organized in 1895, was Mexico's first stake. The baptismal font rests on twelve oxen, a reference to the twelve tribes of Israel.

The temple is compact, so visitors should expect more limited facilities than larger religious buildings of this kind. Planning a visit ahead helps with understanding how the space operates and its religious functions.

The Colonia Juárez temple was the first of the church's small-temple designs completed outside the United States. Its floor plan came from a personal sketch by church president Gordon B. Hinckley, and the white marble was quarried in Durango, Mexico.
