Iglesia La Luz del Mundo, Church building in Salt Lake City, Utah, United States

Iglesia La Luz del Mundo is a church building in Richardsonian Romanesque style in Salt Lake City, constructed in 1898 from brick and Utah sandstone. The structure features characteristic elements including heavy stone walls, rounded arches, and distinctive windows that define its solid, enduring design.

The First Church of Christ, Scientist, was organized on July 17, 1891, as Utah's first Christian Science congregation. Local architect Walter E. Ware designed its Richardsonian Romanesque building, erected in 1898 of brick and Utah Kyune sandstone and dedicated on November 27, 1898, once fully paid for. The congregation left in 2002; after a period as Anthony's Fine Art and Antiques, Iglesia La Luz del Mundo has used the building since about 2006. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on July 30, 1976.

The name La Luz del Mundo, "Light of the World," comes from the Guadalajara-based church that has held services in this building since about 2006, after the Christian Scientists left in 2002. The congregation worships in a structure built for another denomination, so the interior layout follows the 1898 Christian Science design rather than a later remodeling.

The church stands at 40.76250, -111.88069 in Salt Lake City, Utah, and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places, so its brick and Kyune sandstone exterior is best examined from the street. The building is in use as a church, so visits inside depend on the congregation's activities.

The building was designed by local architect Walter E. Ware in the Richardsonian Romanesque style and built in 1898 of brick and Utah Kyune sandstone. It was dedicated on November 27, 1898, once it had been completely paid for.
