To Christians around the world, we celebrate together - the resurrection of our Savior, Jesus Christ - as the author and finisher of our faith! The First Presidency of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day-Saints has issued a statement to the world, of our united hope in this -THE Greatest of all events in world history; and which resulted in what we now celebrate as EASTER!

How truly grateful each one of us are, that through the atoning sacrifice of Jesus Christ, we shall all LIVE again - beyond the grave. Mormonism teaches the very reason for such a gift - and that is, that FAMILIES ARE FOREVER!

We believe that the family is eternal. We believe that our families can be together for eternity - through the atonement and resurrection of Jesus Christ. We believe that this world was created solely for the progress of man - and that through our individual earthly experiences, we can grow to become more like Jesus Christ.

As I reflect on my own life, and the challenges and trials that I have experienced in particular, as a wife and mother - I can more clearly see that these truly are the ways through which I come to better understand, what it means to be a Christian.

Here is wishing each one of you a glorious Easter, in rememberance of what Jesus Christ has made possible for all of mankind!

LDS First Presidency Easter Message....

"At this Easter season of hope and renewal we testify of the glorious reality of the atonement and resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ. The empty tomb brought comforting assurance and provided the answer to the question of Job, “If a man die, shall he live again?” (Job 14:14).

Because of the Savior’s resurrection we will overcome death and become the beneficiaries of His mercy and grace. In a world of trouble and uncertainty, His peace fills our hearts and eases our minds. Jesus is in very deed “the way, the truth, and the life” (John 14:6).

We give our sure witness that Jesus is the Christ. Though He was crucified, He rose triumphant from the tomb to our everlasting blessing and benefit. To each member of the human family He stands as our Advocate, our Savior, and our Friend"

The First Presidency of the Church currently constitutes - President Thomas S. Monson and his counselors, President Henry B. Eyring and President Dieter F. Uchtdorf.

Jesus Christ is central to Mormon beliefs and doctrine. Talks given at the Church’s recent worldwide general conference included doctrinal discourses on Jesus Christ.

Below you will find a video summary of a sermon given by  Elder Jeffrey R. Holland, a member of the Church’s Quorum of the Twelve Apostles, which focuses the attention of “those who are alone or feel alone or, worse yet, feel abandoned” to the life of Jesus Christ.
