Description
The website for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints features a report that, "The British capital’s most prominent Latter-day Saint meetinghouse—the Hyde Park building, located in the heart of London—was rededicated in two sessions in July following renovations, which included a new interactive visitors’ center on the ground floor and a statue inspired by Thorvaldsen’s Christus.  The building is now the center for the London England Hyde Park Stake, which comprises seven wards and 2,000 members from 115 countries."  This re-dedication occurred on July 1, 2012.  The chapel's own website invites people to, "Come visit England's newest visitors' center in the heart of London, the Hyde Park Chapel. This functioning chapel was recently remodeled to include a variety of exhibits on principles of the gospel of Jesus Christ, temples, and the history of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in the British Isles."
