I am not sure what you mean by "common church". Members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (commonly called the "Mormon" church) are expected to attend their local congregation or 'ward', which is assigned geographically to ensure even distribution of members. It is common for Mormons to attend a different ward when traveling or when supporting a friend or family member who might be speaking, performing, or being blessed or ordained in the service.Mormons are welcome to attend other churches and religious services whenever they desire. I have known Mormons who attend other churches regularly in addition to attending their own ward - this is especially the case in families where church membership is mixed. Mormons are also generally open to visiting other churches.
As a Mormon I have attended Catholic mass a handful of times, worship services at Anglican, Presbyterian, Baptist, and nondenominational Christian churches, Friday prayers at my local Muslim mosque, and services at Buddhist and Confucian temples.
What else can I help you with?
When do Mormons typically attend church services?
Mormons typically attend church services on Sundays.

Can a Morman be a mason?
Yes. Members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) may belong to the Masons or other fraternal groups, so long as doing so does not interfere with their service to the Church. It was quite common for the early Mormons to be Masons, but there was also a time when Mormons were discouraged from being Masons. Now, Mormons may be Masons if they choose, but it is not very popular since many Mormons devote a lot of time to their church and family responsibilities.

why do Mormons go on pilgrimages?
Mormons (members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints) are not known for pilgrimages. The closest thing to a pilgrimage for Mormons is attending Temple ceremonies, which every Mormon is encouraged to do at least once in their lifetime. With over 140 Temples worldwide, most Mormons can attend many times without too much sacrifice. Young Mormons are encouraged to go on missions - serving as travelling preachers for 18 months or 2 years. This is not a pilgrimage, as they are not seeking out any particular location, just filling a need for service wherever the Church leaders decide to send them. Many Mormons do have a desire to visit various Church history sites - this is considered by some to be a pilgrimage but it is certainly not a requirement or even strongly suggested within the Church.
What opportunities did the Mormons have?
Members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) have the same opportunities as anyone else. They attend universities, have professional jobs, raise families, and whatever else they'd like to do. The Church provides further opportunities by providing scholarships, student loans, and assistance in finding employment. Check out the "Related Links" below to learn more about Mormons.
