Who We Are

Members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints make up a diverse community of people around the world with a shared faith in God and His Son, Jesus Christ.

An Active Faith

Friends and Neighbors

You can find us living, working, and raising families all around the world. For us, being involved in our community is one way we can love our neighbor as Jesus taught.

Engaged Congregations

Instead of full-time paid clergy, we all play a part in our local congregations through leadership roles, speaking assignments, and other volunteer opportunities.

Support beyond Sunday

For us, church is more than Sunday worship—it’s also a place to find support through friendships and experiences that strengthen faith and offer practical help for life’s challenges.

Local Leaders Are Everyday People

Instead of full-time paid clergy, local congregations are led by members of the Church who volunteer their time. They’re supported by other everyday Church members who help with everything from teaching Sunday School classes to cleaning the church building.

We Teach Each Other

When you visit our congregations, you’ll notice we teach each other and learn together from scripture. We believe everyone has something valuable to contribute, and so leaders ask a wide variety of people to preach over the pulpit, pray, and teach classes.
