Best Answer

Members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) believe that Jesus Christ is the true head of their church and that all teaching comes from Him.
The head of the entire worldwide church on earth is the President, who is considered a Prophet, Seer, and Revelator. The President of the Church is most often called "the Prophet". He is assisted by two counselors and Twelve Apostles.
The person at the head of a congregation is the Bishop. However, most congregational teaching and preaching is not done by the Bishop, rather the members of the congregation rotate teaching and preaching responsibilities. A Mormon Bishop is more of an overseer of the congregation's operations and a personal counselor for individual members who need spiritual guidance, rather than a preacher.

What do Mormons think of freemason?

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) currently has no official policies regarding Freemasons or Freemasonry. Mormons are allowed to be Freemasons and Freemasons are allowed to be Mormons, but Mormon Freemasons are asked to put their religious obligations ahead of their obligations to Freemasonry. For a short period of time, this was not the case, and Mormons were asked to avoid joining the Freemasons and other fraternal organizations.
