The Monterrey Mexico Temple is the 110th operating temple of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church).
The Monterrey Mexico Temple was the LDS Church's 12th temple built in Mexico. It serves over 91,000 members in the city of Monterrey and the northeast of the country in general. Prior to the construction of the temple, members had to travel as long as 25 hours and cross the U.S.–Mexico border to attend Spanish-speaking sessions at the Mesa Arizona Temple.
