The Church currently has 129 temples in operation in over 40 countries around the world. Seventeen more have been announced or are already under construction. Of those in operation, over 60% have been dedicated during the last decade (See Chronological List of Temples). The exponential growth in the number of temples coincides with the tremendous growth of the Church around the world. President Gordon B. Hinckley (who has himself dedicated or re-dedicated over 80 temples) has done much to spread the blessings of the temple to members. Said he: "We have done all that we know how to do to bring temples closer to our people. There are still many who have to travel long distances. I hope they will continue to make that effort" (“Closing Remarks,” Ensign, Nov. 2004, 104).
