The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) officially began in 1830 in Fayette, New York. Ten years previous, Joseph Smith, then just 14 years old, was visted by God the Father and Jesus Christ. Over the next 10 years, he was visited by various heavenly messengers who restored the authority and teachings of the original Christian Church. The first official meeting of the Church was held on April 6, 1830 and consisted of the friends and neighbors of Joseph Smith's family.
