The Savior’s love for you transcended His pain and suffering. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints invites us all to experience the love of Jesus Christ and to feel the reality and impact of His glorious Resurrection for all. Easter is a time of renewal and a season to remember Him and the love Jesus Christ shows to us. He loved us so much that He suffered and died for us. Then, on the third day, He rose again. As we seek to feel His greater love this season we will experience a greater measure of the joy, gratitude, and peace that come from knowing that Jesus Christ lives.
Jesus Christ is the Son of God — our Savior and Redeemer, sent to save us all. Because of Him, you can feel joy and peace knowing you can be free from sin and someday live forever with God and your loved ones.
Jesus Christ was an example of our love. He compassionately healed the sick and disabled, fed the hungry, raised the dead, cared for the poor, welcomed social outcasts, and ministered to all who faithfully sought Him.
The Savior feels the same love and compassion for you. As Christians, we strive to be like the Savior and reflect His love in all we do.
Each of us, including you, can feel greater joy and peace by following the teaching of Jesus Christ. Your local congregation of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has weekly services where you can learn more about how these teaching apply to you personally.
Jesus Christ is a living, Resurrected being. He leads and guides His prophets and apostles today through The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. We believe He will return to the earth again and reign with peace. This year we invite you to come experience His greater love with us.

Seminary is a four-year program for high school students to study the gospel of Jesus Christ. Through the scriptures and the teachings of Latter-day prophets, they deepen their understanding and grow closer to their Savior.
Held during the school year across the Greater Las Vegas area, seminary classes are often attended in the early morning before the school day begins.
Listen to Brighton’s testimony
“Before I knew there was a Savior, my life felt empty, and my actions reflected that… everything changed when I came to know Jesus Christ and His Atonement. I realized my life does matter—my choices, actions, and decisions have purpose. Knowing that Christ died for me opened my eyes to my worth. I wasn’t just drifting through life; I was loved, chosen, and redeemed, and my decisions could impact those around me.

In our family for Easter week we talk about the days leading up to the crucifixion and resurrection. Each night we focus on the day before the cross and resurrection chronologically. We read the scriptures that coincide with those events and have an age appropriate discussion, mostly geared toward the littles in our home.

Year-round, members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints try to keep the Sabbath day holly by workshopping at church and focusing on activities that help us draw closer to Jesus Christ. The Easter Season brings a special focus on Christ’s Resurrection. That might look like families reading passages about the Resurrection from the Bible together or congregations including Easter musical numbers in their workshop services.
Many Latter-day Saints celebrate events leading up to Easter, such as Palm Sunday and Good Friday, by studying the events of the Holy Week, listening to songs about Jesus Christ, and enjoying a special meal with family and friends.
