His Hands

We believe in Him, trust in Him, and serve Him as we remember Him and serve others.

Our calendars are full with family, church services, youth activities, service opportunities, and more, but it all comes back to Christ. “We talk of Christ, we rejoice in Christ, we preach of Christ, we prophesy of Christ…” (2 Nephi 25:26).

We’d love to have you join us for church on Sunday so we can grow in Jesus Christ together.

And if you’d like to learn more about us, take a minute and browse through the site. We’ve included details on upcoming events, our beliefs, information about our temple in downtown Mesa, and more!

But wait! What is The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, and what is a ward and stake?
God has consistently called Prophets to lead His church. Jesus Christ was the head of the church during his time on earth. Following the death of Jesus Christ, wicked people persecuted and killed many Church members. Other Church members drifted from the principles taught by Jesus Christ and His Apostles. The Apostles were killed, and priesthood authority—including the keys to direct and receive revelation for the Church—was taken from the earth. Because the Church was no longer led by priesthood authority, error crept into Church teachings.

Good people and much truth remained, but the gospel as established by Jesus Christ was lost. This period is called the Great Apostasy. This apostasy resulted in the formation of many churches with conflicting teachings.

 But good news! It has been restored!
Learn More About the Church
The Church has members all over the world who are grouped into regions. In each region there are groups of congregations called stakes, made up of 8 to 10 local congregations. The stake in our neighborhood is known as the Mesa Mountain View Stake and has about 3,000 members attending 8 different congregations. Each congregation is led by a Bishop and other volunteers. There are many resources, activites and groups for men, women, youth, seniors, and singles.
