Description

Hosted by Zane Clark, this episode of Focus Hawaii features President Glenn Y. M. Lung and Sister Julina F. Lung, newly called leaders of the Laie Hawaii Temple of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. The interview explores their family backgrounds, deep roots in Hawai‘i, and decades of spiritual and professional service. President and Sister Lung share the story of raising their family in Kaimukī, their involvement in various church assignments, and their lifelong dedication to faith and community. The conversation then shifts to the unique responsibilities of the Temple President and Matron, including oversight of temple operations, hundreds of volunteer ordinance workers, temple grounds, and affiliated facilities such as the Visitors’ Center, Family History Center, and Beehive Clothing. They also explain Latter‑day Saint beliefs about temple ordinances, eternal marriage, and proxy work for deceased ancestors. The episode concludes with a discussion of global temple growth—particularly the expansion era beginning under President Gordon B. Hinckley—and the historical significance of the Laie Hawaii Temple as one of the earliest temples in the Church.
