The temple serves church members in the lower peninsula of Michigan, north-west Ohio and the London Ontario Stake, which includes the border towns of Sarnia and Windsor in Ontario. Sault St. Marie, Michigan and the eastern third of the Upper Peninsula is also in the temple district. South-west Michigan around Benton Harbor, Kalamazoo, Battle Creek and Niles is currently assigned to the Chicago Illinois Temple. The Detroit Michigan Temple is located on the same property as the Bloomfield Hills Michigan Stake Center. The stake center was built in the 1950s under the direction of then-stake president George W. Romney. It was dedicated in 1957 by David O. McKay, who was president of the LDS Church at the time. In the fall of 2012 construction was done to enclose the entrance way to give more assembly space for groups gathering to enter the temple. ==See also== * Comparison of temples of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints * List of temples of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints * List of temples of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints by geographic region * Temple architecture (Latter-day Saints) * The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Michigan 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Detroit Michigan Temple」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
