Jesus Christ is the Savior
Jesus Christ is the Son of God. He suffered and died for all of us, and He rose again. Though He is Savior of the world, He knows you by name. Because of Him you can change, be forgiven, and live with God again.
Jesus Christ at the center.
Basic beliefs
All our beliefs look to Jesus Christ. We celebrate His life and His grace, and we invite you to come to Him without rushing.
God loves you
You are a child of God. He knows you. He wants to hear from you in prayer. When you turn to Him, you find comfort and a way forward.
Life has purpose
Life is not always easy, but God has a plan for each of us. Families sit at the heart of that plan. Death is not the end — it is the close of this stretch of the road.
Two books, one Jesus
We believe the Bible to be the word of God, as far as it is translated correctly. We also believe the Book of Mormon to be the word of God: another witness of Jesus Christ, written by prophets in the ancient Americas.
His Church is here
When Jesus was on the earth, He organized His Church with prophets and apostles. We believe that Church was restored. A living prophet leads it today. On Sunday a congregation is waiting to worship and to hold you up.

Becoming more like Him
Faith in Jesus Christ, repentance, baptism, and the gift of the Holy Ghost. Forgiveness, hope, charity. We look for whatever is virtuous, lovely, or of good report.
Questions people ask
What church is this?
We are The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Some still say “Mormons”; the name we love is Jesus Christ’s.
What should I wear on Sunday?
Come as you would to a family celebration: tidy, not in costume. People usually dress up a little, but nobody turns you away for your clothes. Coming in is what matters.
How long does it last?
Sacrament meeting is about an hour. Classes follow. If it is your first time, stay for that first hour; two missionaries can sit with you.
Do I have to give money?
No. Visitors do not pass a plate. Tithing is a private choice for members.
What is it like to be a member?
We try to follow Jesus Christ: pray, serve, gather on Sunday, care for our families. Nobody expects you to know everything on day one.
A visit, always free.
Meet a missionary
Two missionaries can visit you at home, in a park, or on a video call. They listen. It is always free.
