No, lent is a Catholic tradition and Mormons are Christians!

Actually Catholics are Christians. Also Catholics along with a long line of other Christian Demoninations celebrate Lent. The Word Christian means follower of Christ and Catholics are definitely followers of Jesus Christ.

Both Catholics and Mormons are different denominations of Christianity. Catholics are not the only denomination who observes Lent, so it is conceivable that some Mormons would observe Lent (as many Lutherans, Methodists, and Anglicans do). However, most Mormons do not observe Lent, although they do celebrate Easter.

Yes! Members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (commonly called the "Mormon" church) regard the Resurrection of Jesus Christ as one of the single most important events in history. They celebrate Easter to commemorate this event, as most Christians do.

Yes. We celebrate all that Christ did for us. We know that he suffered so we could repent and return to Him. However, we do not wear crucifixes because we don't focus on the death of Christ, but the life He lived and all He has done for us.

Yes, they do. Members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (commonly called the "Mormon" church) believe that the resurrection of Jesus Christ is one of the single most important events in history. They actively celebrate Easter as well as Christmas.

The Church has released several Easter messages in recent years, visit the "Related Links" to see them.

Mormon celebrate Easter in various different ways, much as the rest of the world does. As long as the celebrations conform with the church standards Mormons are free to celebrate Easter as they see fit.

Yes. Members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) celebrate Easter. In fact, Easter is often considered the most important holiday by Mormons, as the Atonement and Resurrection of Jesus Christ is central to their doctrine. While Mormons try to place their focus on the religious aspects of the holiday, most families with young children still follow the traditions of the Easter Bunny, egg hunts, etc.

Yes! Easter is often considered the most important day of the year to members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church). Mormons believe that the Atonement and Resurrection of Jesus Christ are the most important events in all of history, and they join with other Christians in remembering and celebrating those events on Easter.
