The Brisbane Australia Temple is the 115th operating temple of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints .On July 20, 1998 the LDS Church announced that a temple would be built in Brisbane, Australia. The Brisbane temple is the fifth temple in Australia. The church has grown rapidly in the country. In 1955 there were only 3,000 members in Australia; now there are 186 meetinghouses throughout Australia and more than 106,000 members. The Brisbane temple serves 20,000 LDS Church members in the area. Of the five temples in Australia, four were opened within three years. A groundbreaking ceremony and site dedication were held May 26, 2001. Construction of the temple, which began in November 2001, took 18 months and cost 11 million dollars. Despite the high price, the temple was built without any debt and was completely funded by members of the church. A public open house was held May 10, 2003 through June 7, 2003. Those who toured the temple were able to see the beautifully furnished rooms. The temple features painted designs on the walls and ornate light fixtures in every room. The Brisbane Australia Temple was dedicated on June 15, 2003. LDS Church president Gordon B. Hinckley gave the dedicatory prayer.
