Presidents of the Church

Each president of the church has brought something new and special to the Restoration, remembering their lives and leadership connects us with the history of the church and its important teachings.

Note: The day given in each article for the memory of a President of the Church is the day they died. Traditionally within Christianity, and other religions like Judaism, once a person has passed on their lives and efforts are honored on the day they passed away, as that is the day they completed their progress on earth.
