Jesus Christ- The Christus

LDS Facts- Introduction

This hub is created to share information about the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. It will explain about the church, its beliefs, and how we are Christians who believe in Jesus Christ as our Savior.

This site is not affiliated with the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints at all. This statement has to be said primarily because I am just a mom of two who writes unintelligibly at times, a little off humor at other times, and is just trying to give information about a church she loves.

Everything you find in this hub will be accurate because I am never wrong, lol! Actually if you find errors, please let me know so I can correct them. I am not a scriptorian, a know everything about the churcher, or anything like that.

I hope you enjoy the information here.
