An estimated 1.3 million members participated in either the live broadcast in the morning, or during the rebroadcast in the evening. It aired in 12 languages and in six time zones. This was not the first live broadcast of a temple dedication. However, it was the first encrypted broadcast to such a wide-scale audience on the Church satellite system.

Coverage of the Fresno California Temple dedicated April 9 will be in the April 22 issue of the Church News.
