As someone who has studied many different religions, and many different sects of the christian faith. I can honeatly say if any church was the closest to that of the church in Christ's time it would be this church. Spending years studying the Book of Mormon alongside the King James Bible, I have found nothing contradictory or flawed in the teachings of the church. To recap on a previous review, I did some research and the doctrines of this church follow those of the Bible regarding men and women as equals, however that is not to be misunderstood that the Bible does refer to the man as the patriarch of the home, and he is normally the leader of spiritual things. As for the young women they are taught a regular sunday school class alongside the boys for 45 min and then have a 45 minute class just for the young women where they are taught to be better wives or mothers or whatever they choose to be. As for their "chant" it's nothing different than what the boy scouts do, lol. And it's completely optional, as are all of the activities they attend including church itself. I hope this sheds some light rhat no people aren't perfect and yes the women in the bible deserve more respect, but don't judge any church based on a few people. That also is in the Bible

I currently attend church here, and I love it. The members of the church here are warm and welcoming.
Church starts with "Sacrament meeting" in the chapel (the large meeting room in the west side of the building), which lasts for a little over an hour. It consists of baptized members taking the sacrament. If you haven't been baptized into the church, and that sacrament tray is passed to you, just pass it along to the next person. The Sacrament is followed by a program usually consisting of religious talks given by members of the congregation who are assigned topics; reverent musical performances, and hymns sung by the whole congregation.
Afterwards, everyone goes to Sunday School. Ages 12-17 go to the youth Sunday school class for their age group; adults 18 and up go to adult Sunday school; and children under 12 attend Primary. Currently in one of the adult classes, our focus is on the New Testament and the life and Gospel of Jesus Christ. Last year was the Old Testament and Jesus Christ's role in it, and next year will be Christ's teachings found in The Book of Mormon. Our children have made good friends in Primary and Sunday school who have proven to be positive influences in their lives.
During the 3rd and final hour of church meetings, the men and women divide off into separate classes. Men go to a Priesthood meeting (which contains more specific stuff for men, and specifically stuff pertaining to Priesthood holders). Women go to Relief Society meeting. I don't really know what they do too much in Relief Society meeting. I go to my Priesthood meeting. In priesthood meeting, we receive instruction about what Christ would have us do to be good husbands and fathers, and how to fulfill our priesthood responsibilities within our families and within the church.
Usually during the week (usually on Wednesdays or Thursdays), youth activities, Cub/Boy Scouts, and other meetings and activities for adults take place. Also, usually monthly, there's a big activity for everyone. This month (October), we'll be doing a tailgate party/chili cook-off. It will be awesome, and maybe I'll win the best chili. You never know - it could happen.
I love this church. Visitors are welcome. If you let someone know that you're visiting for the first time, they'll be happy to show you where things are, and may introduce you to the missionaries (who will teach you the basic beliefs, doctrines of the gospel, and will probably invite you at some point to be baptized into the church to become a member).Added January 19, 2017 by Joseph Delli Gatti - ★ ★ ☆ ☆ ☆
As someone who attended this church for five years, I am very disappointed. I have had Sunday "School teachers" (as they are referred to) call supposedly sacred women in the bible as "hot babes" and repeatedly say that a woman's duty is to bear children. Young women (ages 12-18) are taught the "virtues of motherhood" multiple times a week (over three hours on Sunday and over an hour on Wednesday, and the occasional Saturday or other day activities). Other social controversies were "taught", despite it being illegal to do so (seeing as they are tax exempted). Another abnormality is the repeated chanting of church quotes. For example, every Sunday the young women would stand up and chant at the same time "We are daughters of our Heavenly Father, who loves us, and we love Him. We will 'stand as witnesses of God at all times and in all things, and in all places' (Mosiah 18:9) as we strive to live the Young Women values, which are: Faith, Divine Nature, Individual Worth, Knowledge, Choice and Accountability, Good Works, Integrity, and Virtue.
We believe as we come to accept and act upon these values, we will be prepared to strengthen home and family, make and keep sacred covenants, receive the ordinances of the temple, and enjoy the blessings of exaltation." As it is clear from this chant, women's number one expected role in this church is motherhood "duties" (having as much children as possible, staying home, raising the children, "obeying" the husband). The church representatives are also racist and homophobic, often referring to anyone who is not male, Caucasian, or Mormon in a negative way. A young lady I met wore a suit instead of a dress to church and she had her "leaders" pull her aside and tell her she was "being immodest." The church is stuck back in time when women and all ethnicities except for Caucasian were second class citizens and is stubbornly refusing to change. The members will act artificially nice--especially to new faces--but their subtle and passive aggressive hostility make the environment unbearable.
