No. They are two very different churches. "Mormon" is actually a nickname for a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

Both the Mormons and the Catholics believe in The Bible and in salvation through Jesus Christ. They have many shared values and for this reason have partnered together in several projects, both internationally and locally. However, despite their friendship, they are two very different churches with two very different doctrines. This is easily observed by visiting the worship services of both.

Do Catholics get along better with Mormons or protestants?

This really is something that is treated on an individual basis and not the relations between denominations as a whole. The Catholic Church certainly has a right to not approve of Mormons or Protestants, as both claim that the Catholic Church has gone astray. The Catholic Church generally has good relations with other denominations and individual Catholic groups work together with both Protestant and Mormon groups on a regular basis. Whether an individual Catholic prefers the company of Protestants or Mormons would be based on his/her individual personality, as they will have many common beliefs with people from both religions.


Were Mormons part of the catholic church?

No. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) is unique from many other Christian sects in that it did not split from another Christian church. The main founders of the Mormonism movement were independent Christians and were not members of any other church or sect prior to founding the Mormon Church. The Mormons were never part of the Catholic Church. There are, however, thousands of Mormons today who are converts from Catholicism.

Do Mormons have a midnight Mass?

"Mass" is the name of a Catholic worship service. It is tradition for many Catholic churches to hold a midnight Mass on Christmas Eve. Mormons are not Catholic, so they do not have "Mass". The comparable Mormon worship service is called "Sacrament Meeting." Mormons do not hold any meetings or worship services at midnight. Sacrament Meetings are generally held on Sundays during daytime hours (there are special exceptions in Muslim nations). Mormons also do not have Sacrament Meetings on Christmas Eve or Christmas Day unless it happens to also be a Sunday, although many Mormon congregations hold a special Christmas service on a Sunday or Saturday in December. You can check out the "related links" below to compare a Catholic Mass with a Mormon Sacrament Meeting.
