Bacolod City, April 23, 2026 — All seven wards of the Escalante Stake converged at the Bacolod Temple Open House on Thursday, marking their scheduled day to visit as one unified body. Though the open house remains open to the public daily, the designated date brought hundreds together in a shared expression of faith and anticipation.

With transportation arranged per ward, ranging from private vehicles to shared car and bus pools, the visit made participation accessible to many. Family and friends of other faiths were also welcomed, adding to a spirit of openness and community as visitors experienced the temple firsthand.
