The Philadelphia Pennsylvania Temple will be the first temple built in Pennsylvania.
The Church has indicated that the Philadelphia Pennsylvania Temple will serve members from eight stakes in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Delaware. These stakes are presumably the Cherry Hill New Jersey Stake, Harrisburg Pennsylvania Stake, Philadelphia Pennsylvania Stake, Reading Pennsylvania Stake, Scranton Pennsylvania Stake, Valley Forge Pennsylvania Stake, Williamsport Pennsylvania Stake, and Wilmington Delaware Stake. Since this announcement, two new stakes have been created in the area; namely, the Dover Delaware Stake and the Lancaster Pennsylvania Stake.
