Peculiar People started in 2023 while I was serving a mission in San Antonio, Texas. The name comes from Peter's description of the Saints as "a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people" — members who keep their covenants without making a show of it, and are fine looking a little old-fashioned for it.

We make apparel with original line art of Latter-day Saint temples, made one temple at a time and printed on heavier, better-made garments. Most members want to talk about the gospel but don't know how to open the door. A shirt someone asks about is an easier start than a knock on one.

The Sweatshirt

You put on a Peculiar People sweatshirt because it reminds you why we're all here. Because that building is where you were sealed to your spouse, where you got an answer to a prayer you'd been carrying for years, where you first felt something you couldn't explain away. A stepping stone. A day you'll never forget.

You put it on because you want to share that with someone. Because gospel conversations are hard to start. Harder than they were on your mission, when the whole day was built around them.

It's the new white shirt and tie. The new dress. The new name tag you don't need a calling to wear. A sweatshirt you may even feel prompted to wear some days.

That's why I started this company. It doesn't take much for someone who has been prepared to tap you on the shoulder and ask a question that changes the direction of their life. No argument, no pitch, no lesson plan. Just an opening.

And you keep it on because it's premium heavyweight fleece with a ringspun cotton face, garment-dyed to that soft, worn-in vintage look you'd wear even if it said nothing at all.

Size Guide

Heber Valley Utah Temple

Status
Under construction. Site work began in August 2025, nearly three years after groundbreaking, and crews were pouring the temple's deep foundation slab in August 2026. Dates for the public open house and dedication have not yet been announced.

Location
Heber City, Utah. The temple is rising on a 17.9-acre site southeast of 1400 East Center Street, at an elevation of 5,711 feet in the Heber Valley, a mountain valley about 40 miles from Salt Lake City.

Temple Number
The first temple built in Wasatch County and the 28th announced for Utah. Its number among the Church's dedicated temples will be fixed at its dedication.

Announced
, by President Russell M. Nelson during the 191st Semiannual General Conference, one of 13 temples announced at the close of the Sunday afternoon session.

Groundbreaking
. President Russell M. Nelson presided and offered the site dedicatory prayer before a crowd of more than 600. Elder Kevin R. Duncan, General Authority Seventy and executive director of the Temple Department, also spoke.

Architecture
A three-story temple of approximately 88,000 square feet, with rows of arched windows, two attached end towers topped by domed cupolas, and a planned height of 210 feet.

Ordinance Rooms
Four instruction rooms and four sealing rooms.

Construction Story
  • The Church had announced that Elder Kevin R. Duncan would preside at the groundbreaking. Instead, President Nelson made a surprise appearance and presided himself, telling the crowd, "Today, we will begin the work by breaking ground for a temple in this unique and wonderful valley."
  • The temple will stand on land purchased in 1946 by George Holmes Sr., a World War II veteran and the son of immigrant parents, and his wife Clara. President Nelson said of him, "For years, he had dreamt of building a forever home with his beloved Clara. In a very real way, his dream will be realized."
  • Wasatch County approved the temple in November 2023 through a legislative development agreement, and a group of residents sued the county three weeks later. Although a building permit had been issued, the Church voluntarily waited to build while the case was reviewed; a district judge upheld the county's approval on July 23, 2025, and site work began the following month.
  • Construction paused again in September 2025 when the Utah Supreme Court agreed to hear the residents' appeal, then resumed in February 2026 after the court unanimously lifted the injunction, allowing work to continue while the appeal is decided.
  • The site sits on shallow groundwater. Before foundation work, the Utah Division of Water Rights approved 20 dewatering wells; a 2023 study estimated up to a million gallons a day would need to be pumped, settled in tanks, and discharged into adjacent Lake Creek.

Symbolism & Design
  • The design defers to the valley's dark skies. The Church dropped the wall-wash floodlighting typical of temple exteriors, warmed the lighting from 4000 to 3000 Kelvin, adjusted the color and texture of the exterior stone to reduce reflected light, and committed to shutting off all outdoor lighting at 11 each night. Principal architect Curtis Miner told the county council it "will be one of the dimmest temples in the world."

Trivia
  • Heber City is named for Heber C. Kimball, the apostle whose missionary service in England in the 1840s converted many of the families who settled the valley. Heber's first ward was organized in 1860.
  • As President and Sister Nelson left the groundbreaking, the crowd broke into "We Thank Thee, O God, for a Prophet."

FAQ

Is it appropriate to wear a temple on a shirt?

I get this one a lot, and I thought about it before I drew the first one. These are architectural drawings of a building, not anything that happens inside it. No slogans, nothing that turns the temple into a punchline. If you'd put a framed temple photo in your living room, this is that same idea on cotton.

No. We are an independent company. Peculiar People is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

Our goal with our clothing is for it to be seen. Which means it also needs to be your go-to comfort clothing.

It's made to be the first thing you grab when you want to be comfortable, and the first clothing you'll be prompted to wear.

Our prints are made to last. To esure No bleach, and no fabric softener, which coats the fibers and dulls the print over time. Don't iron over the design. You can wash it before the first wear to get the loose surface dye off, but you don't have to.

It's a men's cut. If you normally wear a women's medium, order a small for a fitted look or a medium if you want it roomier. The size guide video shows a woman at 5'9" in a small and a man at 6'4" in a large.

Original line art, made here, one temple at a time. Every drawing gets checked against verified references before we add it to our collection.

Yes. Ward and stake temple trips, mission reunions, family reunions. Email support@peculiarpeopleco.com with the temple, the garment, and roughly how many people, and I'll get back to you with a price.

An SVG of the temple line art for $4.95. Same drawing that goes on the shirts. It's a vector, so it scales to any size without going soft at the edges, and it opens in Cricut, Illustrator, Figma, or anything else that reads vectors.
