Every Sunday, members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (commonly called the "Mormon" Church) will go to a local church meetinghouse for worship services. Most members attend church for three hours. One hour is spent in a family worship service similar to those of other denominations. The next hour is spent in Sunday School and the next hour, worship groups focused on age or gender groups. (similar to Men's/Women's Bible Study, Youth Groups, Children's Church, etc) Visitors are invited to stay for just the main family worship service or for all three hours.

Members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) hold worship services on Sunday in church buildings or meetinghouses. Small congregations might hold their worship services in a home or rented building.
The worship service begins with an hour long "Sacrament Meeting." Sacrament meeting takes place in the chapel or sanctuary of the church, where families sit together in pews or chairs. This service is similar to most Christian church services. Hymns are sung by the congregation, and various members of the congregation are called on to lead everyone in prayer. The focal point of the meeting is called 'Sacrament'. It is similar to communion or Lord's Supper, in that a priest blesses bread and water which is then passed to the congregation by deacons. Following the Sacrament, members of the congregation will give short sermons, and the meeting will be closed by another hymn and prayer.
For two hours after Sacrament Meeting, Sunday School and study groups are held which are divided by age and/or gender. Nursery is provided for toddlers age 1 to 3. Primary is held for children ages 4 to 12. Sunday School is provided for youth and adults. Women's groups, mens groups, and youth groups also meet.
Mormons also worship during the week at home. Most Mormons study scripture and pray as a family daily. They also set apart one night a week to have a gospel lesson or activity together as a family.

∙ 14y agoMembers of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (commonly called the "Mormon" church) may pray in any place at any time. Prayer may be done individually or in groups. It is considered to be speaking directly to God and therefore prayers are simple and come from the heart, they are never recited or memorized. There is no such thing as a "prayer book" for Mormons.
Most families will hold a morning and evening family prayer in their homes. Sunday Worship services, including Sunday Schools and Youth Groups, will hold a prayer and the opening and closing of each meeting. The public is welcome to attend these meetings and join in prayer and worship. Prayer, both individually and in groups, is also performed in Temple worship services, which are held on weekdays.

∙ 15y agoMormons worship God through prayer and fasting. By good works, by loving their neighbor, looking after the welfare of the poor and needy. By service in and out of the church. By keeping the commandments and by doing missionary work. By recognizing that God gives them everything. He is the father of their spirits as He is of all people. They worship Him and Him alone. They give back to God one tenth of their earnings to do with as He pleases. Any good that a Mormon does is some form of worship to the only God who they know.

Do Mormons pray?
Yes, a Mormon, or person belonging to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, does pray. That is how they communicate with Heavenly Father.
How many times do Mormon pray?
There is no set number of times that members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) pray. Most Mormons will pray at least morning and night, either alone or with family. They also usually pray before meals. Mormons believe they can pray anytime, anywhere, and it is common for them to stop and give a short prayer of thanks when something nice has happened, or pray for comfort or blessing when they feel they or a loved one are in need. The Bible says to 'pray always', so many Mormons try to keep an attitude of prayer throughout the day. During church meetings, it is customary to hold an opening and closing prayer for each meeting, as well as two prayers for the 'sacrament' (communion) - So a Mormon attending church on Sunday will pray at least 8 times over the course of their three hour church service.

Does God hate Mormons and saw fit to embarrass them in this Presidential election?
No. Mormons aren't embarrassed. Most Mormons don't even live in the US and therefore didn't really pay much attention to the presidential election. There are also hundreds of thousands (if not a million or more) Mormons who supported Barack Obama in the election. Having someone who happens to be a member of the same religious denomination as you lose a presidential election is not embarrassing. I, as a Mormon, certainly don't feel embarrassed, nor do I know of any other Mormons who feel embarrassed. The general feeling among Mormons who supported Romney is disappointment, but happy that he had a great campaign. Church leaders have asked all Mormons to congratulate President Obama on his victory and to pray for him and all other government leaders.

What is the major emphasis of Mormons worship?
Members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (Mormons) worship God our Heavenly Father. Mormons also worship Jesus Christ, the son of God to whom they look for salvation. Mormons pray to the father in the name of the son. Mormons believe that the father has given all power and authority to his son Jesus. The plan of salvation is administered through Jesus Christ. Jesus created this earth. It is he who answers our prayers. He set an example and taught us how to come unto the father. Jesus suffered and died in order to pay our debt of sin. He will be our judge. Mormons worship the father by striving to live a Christ like life. As we turn our lives to Christ, we are saved by his atoning sacrifice for sin. If we are in rebellion to God, we have no such promise.
