When the Fourth of July falls on a Sunday, Mormons usually spread the celebration over two days. They spend Saturday doing traditional Fourth of July things - having barbeque's, parades, parties, and watching fireworks displays.
As America, independence, and patriotism are very important concepts in the Church, Sunday is spent thanking God for the blessings we receive for being citizens of this country. (This is usually done on the Sunday closest to the 4th each year) Patriotic songs and hymns are sung during worship services, and the service often ends with the congregation rising to sing the National Anthem. The messages in the service are often about being thankful for our nation or honoring veterans and others who have fought for our freedoms and liberties.

Most Mormon families would attend church in the morning and spend time with family and friends in the evening. Some families may choose to celebrate on the 3rd or 5th instead. Often in Utah the 4th of July festivals and fireworks are held on Saturday or Monday rather than Sunday.
