The Provo Missionary Training Center of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is preparing to receive “significant” updates, according to a Tuesday report on ChurchofJesusChrist.org.
These updates include plans to remove and rebuild the training center’s cafeteria and administration buildings, as well as to design two new buildings to be constructed in the area where the cafeteria and administration buildings now stand.
“Over the decades, the Provo MTC campus has evolved to meet the needs of a growing missionary force, with new buildings added and others updated,” the report states.
It adds the missionary training center will “remain fully operational throughout the multiyear project,” and says updates will “enhance the missionary experience.”
Located just north of Brigham Young University’s campus, the Provo Missionary Training Center has 16 buildings on a 39-acre site, including residence, classroom and administrative buildings, as well as a missionary training center store.
At the training center, missionaries are taught in more than 50 languages as they prepare to preach the gospel of Jesus Christ, as taught by the church, to people worldwide.
The new facilities will offer missionaries in training an “improved environment” where they can learn, grow and prepare spiritually for their service.
