Mormonism

The Mormons went to Utah to escape persecution and death at the hands of the mobs that had driven them out of other states.

In the early days of the Church there was a lot of prejudice against its members, and as result of the prejudice the early church members were chased out of one place after another. They had moved between New York, Illinois, Missouri ,and Ohio, and in Missouri the state actually passed a law making it legal to kill a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. This Law stayed on the books until 1976.

The United States Government in response to the petitions of the Church members for help, effectively told them to get out of the country. So they sought an area that was far from other people.

The reason the Mormons left was because they had been kicked out of Ohio, Missouri, and Illinois. They appealed to the federal government for assistance, but were told that the government could do nothing for them. So, they went where they knew they could practice their religion in peace - a land that was rumored to be uninhabitable - the valley of the Great Salt Lake.

No city was originally called Deseret, the state of Utah was once called Deseret (before it became an official U.S. Territory). The area that 'Deseret' took up was much larger than the area that Utah takes up now.

Tens of thousands of members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) traveled to Utah between 1847 and 1900. Of course many of them had different experiences on their journey, and therefore there were many feelings and reactions upon arriving in Utah. Some were relieved their journey was over. Some were concerned that Utah wasn't the final mover and that they might have to leave soon. Some were disappointed that Utah was so inhospitable and barren, and some of these were hopeful the church would eventually move to California.

There are about 175,000 baptized members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the 'Mormon' church) in Nevada. This means about 6% of Nevada residents are Mormon.

As of January 2010, there are about 1,200,000 baptized members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Mexico.

the first white settlers in utah were men who left the lewis and clark expodition and built cabins in a spot that later became known as linwood utah . the first cabin was built in 1827. is still in use today

The population of Utah is 2,736,424. Of that number, 1,857,667 are baptized members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (commonly called "Mormons").

This means that approximately 68% of the population of Utah is techincally a "Mormon". However, over 20% of the Church members in Utah are not practicing, meaning that although they were baptized, they do not attend church. Only about 40% of Utah's population are active, practicing Mormons.

In the winter of 1845-1846, the saints began their preparation to migrate to the West in search of a "New Zion." In the Spring of 1846, they began their large migration and arrived in Salt Lake City in 1847.

"I Will Be Ready"

There is a battle raging all across the Earth

Fought by fearless souls who know what truth is worth.

The Lord is gathering an army in his name

To be the witnesses who bear the gospel flame.

I will be ready, I will be ready

To listen when he whispers to my soul.

I will live purely so I will be worthy

Prepared for when he calls for me to go.

Faithful and steady, I will be ready.

This is the time for worthy soldiers to arise.

They stand unyielding with conviction in their eyes.

The Lord is harvesting the noble and the strong

To be the laborers to move this work along.

And I will be ready.

(Onward Christian soldiers)

I will be ready

(Marching as to war.)

To listen when he whispers to my soul.

(With the cross of Jesus going on before.)

I will live purely

(Christ, our royal master)

So I will be worthy.

(Leads against the foe.)

Prepared for when he calls for me to go.

(Forward into battle, see his banners go.)

I will be ready.

(Like a might army moves the Church of God,

Brothers, we are treading where the Saints have trod.

We are not divided, all one body, we

One in hope and doctrine

One in charity.)

And I will be ready.

(Onward Christian soldiers)

I will be ready

(Marching as to war.)

To listen when he whispers to my soul.

(With the cross of Jesus going on before.)

I will live purely

(Christ, our royal master)

So I will be worthy.

(Leads against the foe.)

Prepared for when he calls for me to go.

(Forward into battle, see his banners go.)

I will be ready.

I promise when he

Offers to send me

Faithful and steady,

I will be ready.

No. Selena Gomez was born and raised a Roman Catholic. She has never been baptized into the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (commonly called the "Mormon" church).

No. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) has never done business with Wal-Mart. Wal-Mart is a publicly traded company (symbol:WMT) its majority holders are the Walton Family, the children of Sam and Bud Walton, the founders of Wal-Mart. Individual members of the Mormon church are welcome to own stock in Wal-Mart if they desire, but the Church itself has nothing to do with the store.

Currently (August 2011), there are two members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) campaigning for president of the US for the Republican nomination. They are Mitt Romney (former Governor of Massachusetts) and Jon Huntsman (former Governor of Utah and US Ambassador to China).

Probably #160, Softly Now the Light of Day. The music is only two lines and there is only one verse, which reads:

"Softly now the light of day Fades upon my sight away.

Free from care, from labor free, Lord, I would commune with thee."

Or #242, Praise God from whom all blessings flow. I timed them based on the time signature and tempo and they are the exact same length. Lyrics are:

"Praise God from whom all blessings flow, Praise him a creatures here below. Praise him above ye heavenly host, praise Father, Son and Holy Ghost."

Hymn 136 Love One Another is also pretty short, although it's a bit longer than the other two it's still very short with the hymn stating

As I have loved you, Love one another.

This new commandment: Love one another.

By this shall men know Ye are my disciples,

If ye have love One to another.

The first missionaries of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (commonly called the "Mormon" church) arrived in New Zealand in October 1854. They were Mission President Augustus Farnham, Elder Thomas Holder, and recent Australian convert Elder William Cooke. Five months later, the first ten New Zealanders were baptized into the Church. By 1880, there were seven small congregations in New Zealand. In the mid 1880's, Mormonism became extremely popular among the Maori people and the Mormon population in New Zealand grew rapidly.

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) reported 3.5 million baptistized members in South America as of January 2012. (South America includes Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Columbia, Ecuador, French Guiana, Guyana, Paraguay, Peru, Suriname, Uruguay, and Venezuela)

Actually, if David Archuletta marries two women, he will be excommunicated from his church. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (commonly called the "Mormon" church) has strictly prohibited polygamy (having more than one spouse) for over 120 years. Anyone who is found practicing polygamy is excommunicated. Excommunication means that he will be kicked out of the Church.

If David Archuletta plans on continuing to follow Mormonism, he will marry only one woman.
