The Feather River California Temple Open for Tours

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints’ connection to the land on which the Feather River California Temple sits in Yuba City goes back 50 years. It is a story rich in interfaith harmony and mutual respect. In the early 1970s, Mehar Tumber and his family (devout Sikhs) owned the land and used it to grow peaches. Church leaders had struggled to find suitable property for a stake center, a building in which multiple congregations could meet. Tumber, a man of great faith, was not in the market to sell. But he changed his mind after Church representatives approached him about making a deal. “He loved the idea,” said Raji Tumber, his daughter. “He came home that day when he said yes and said, ‘I’m so happy. We are so blessed to have the Church here as our neighbor, as our anchor. They’re going to anchor us and keep us. We’re going to be in a great relationship.’” The relationship continues today. The Feather River Temple, which opens to the public this week, sits in the same space as the old stake center. That building was razed in 2020 (and many of its valuable materials were donated to other faiths) to make way for a house of the Lord — the most sacred spaces on earth. The open house runs from August 19 through September 9, 2023. Learn more about the Feather River California Temple. Find more information here: https://newsroom.churchofjesuschrist....
