How long is a Mormon mass?

Answer 1

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (commonly called the "Mormon" church) does not hold mass, mass is a Catholic worship service. Most Mormons attend church services for three hours on Sunday. Mormon Sunday services are split in the following way:

Usually the first hour is called 'Sacrament Meeting', it is the main worship service and is similar to most Protestant worship services. Families gather in a chapel sanctuary to sing hymns, pray, and listen to sermons. The sacrament (communion) is the focal point of the meeting and is passed every Sunday to the congregation by the deacons.

Following Sacrament Meeting, Sunday School classes are held. Sunday School is also an hour long, and is split by age group. Toddlers, children, youth, teens, and adults each have their own age-approprate lessons.

Following Sunday School, another hour of meetings is held. This hour is dedicated to focus groups. Women 18+ attend Relief Society (women's study) meetings, men attend priesthood meetings, teens attend youth group services, and children attend Primary, a children's worship service with an age appropriate lesson, activities, and singing.

In addition, most teens attend a youth group activity during the week (Sunday youth groups are focused on gospel study and worship, weekday activities are for fellowship, fun, and service projects) and Seminary classes on weekdays during the school year. Congregation activities and activities for Primary, Relief Society, and Priesthood groups are held monthly or quarterly.

All of these meetings are open to the public. Visitors may choose to attend all three Sunday meetings or only one. Many visitors choose to only attend Sacrament Meeting, while others enjoy also attending Sunday School and group classes.
