The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints
Overview
Members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints believe that through Jesus Christ all humankind may enjoy eternal life with their families in God’s kingdom (see John 3:16). We also believe that we lived with God as spirits before we were born (see Romans 8:16) and that according to His plan of happiness we came to earth to receive physical bodies in order to learn and grow. Mormons also believe that, through the work done in temples of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, family relationships can last forever. In order to receive these blessings, we must seek to know and follow God’s will, as revealed by holy scriptures and living prophets, and live righteously. And we must repent when we make mistakes.
The Church’s mission is to help us meet the challenges of this life and to help us follow Jesus Christ, so that we will be worthy of the temporal and spiritual blessings God wants for us.
