    Elder Quentin L. Cook of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles will preside at the dedicatory sessions at 9 a.m., noon and 3 p.m., which will be broadcast to all units in the Quito Ecuador Temple district.

    The Quito Ecuador Temple will be the second temple in the country, after the Guayaquil Ecuador Temple, which was dedicated in August 1999. Ecuador is home to more than 250,000 members of the Church who compose over 300 congregations.
