The House of the Lord
Temples are sacred places where we make covenants with God. For the members of the Carcar Ward, the Cebu Philippines Temple is a beacon of faith and a place of peace.
The Cebu Philippines Temple
Dedicated in 2010, the Cebu Philippines Temple was the first temple built in the Visayas region. For members in Carcar, it represents generations of sacrifice—from the early missionaries who preached the gospel here to the families who saved for years to travel to the Manila Temple before Cebu was built.
Today, it stands as a testament to the promise that the hearts of the children will turn to their fathers.
Why Temples Matter
We believe that the family is eternal. In the temple, husbands and wives can be sealed together for time and all eternity, and children can be sealed to their parents. These ordinances are not just for us; they are performed for our ancestors who have passed on, giving everyone the opportunity to accept the gospel of Jesus Christ.
Prepare for the Temple
Whether you are preparing to go to the temple for the first time or returning to renew your covenants, the temple is open to all worthy members. Learn more on the official Church website.
