(KSL News) Builders have reached a milestone in the construction of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints Oquirrh Mountain Temple. Crews have placed the Angel Moroni atop the temple's spire.

Construction has been underway on the temple near the Daybreak community since a groundbreaking ceremony in December of 2006.

It will be the fourth temple built in the Salt Lake Valley and, with the Jordan River Temple also there, South Jordan will be the only city in the world with two LDS temples.
