The Moonsea sourcebook only mentions a shrine to Lathander in the outskirts of Voonlar.

2e's City of Raven's Bluff for the Lathander temple reference. As I recall, there's a brief mention in Forgotten Realms Adventures as well.
Voonlar's temple is mentioned in The Moonsea accessory.
As for Lathander temples in Impiltur, I don't recall, specifically, any being named. Though, given the fact that Lyrabar and Hlammach are classed as metropolis-sized locales and usually see a great deal of people from elsewhere in the Realms pass through, it's likely that Lathander has some representation in both cities.

No, it doesn't have to be, but places like Voonlar, Raven's Bluff, Lyrabar and Hlammach are suitable because I dont see it as a big fancy temple because to be honest, the clergy doesnt know about this....group :D. |

Nothing wrong with a sorcerer who follows L. Does the temple need to be in the Narfell area?

But I like to try and tie things in that are cannon to give the more 'real feel' of it.
Yes, I agree--there can definitely be fun in "participating" in these events, in one's own way. |

We might be able to give you more suggestions if you tell us why he wants to go to a temple.

I wont mind detouring it a bit because my NPC does travel to this area and then travels to the nearest temple to Lathander, be it in Narfell or a surrounding area. So this still works out well for me.

Great point. Also, why not have the temple headed by someone actively trying to make the religion more popular? That kind of venture might not always be successful, but where would the Realms be if no one ever tried? |

Preferably keeping to that section yes, so I'll make a note of those two areas. |

There's a map for Narfell in The Bloodstone Lands, though given the lack of a proper Lathander-based temple, it may no longer be useful for you.
If you want to keep within that section of the Realms however, there's "nearby" temples to Lathander in Voonlar, and one in Raven's Bluff.

Ugh damnation. I knew there was a bump in my road
Thank you Krash, tis been a question I've been seeking answer for a while now. I'll have to do some slight editing and choose a new area, but none the less I appreicate it muchly :D |

The worship of Lathander isn't particularly common in the Narfell area - certainly not sufficient to warrant a temple being located there. The other difficulty is that Narfell has no real major cities and hence again, no real location for a temple. A wayside shrine might be your best bet.
