The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, widely known as the "LDS Church" or the "Mormon Church", is the largest and most well-known denomination within the Latter Day Saint movement (a form of Restorationist Christianity). The church is headquartered in Salt Lake City, Utah, USA, and its current president is Gordon B. Hinckley.
Members of the church—known as Latter-day Saints—regard Jesus Christ as the Son of God and the Savior, who overcame death, atoned for the sins of all humanity, and invites everyone to be redeemed through him. They believe that Jesus Christ appeared with God the Father to Joseph Smith, Jr. and called him to be a prophet and to organize the original church established by Jesus Christ on Earth through a restoration which included the return of priesthood authority and the calling of new Twelve Apostles. They also believe that Jesus Christ, as head of the church, is actively leading them through ongoing revelation. They accept additional writings such as the Book of Mormon as inspired scripture, and do not consider the canon to be closed. Thus, they consider themselves Christians, but not part of the Catholic, Orthodox, or Protestant traditions.
