Mormon Pageants

2816
Christ appears at the climax of the Hill Cumorah Pageant

Mormons (members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints) do many wonderful things on their own volition.  The pageants presented by The Church of Jesus Christ are actually not sponsored by the Church, but by local, ambitious and talented Mormons.  Writers, composers, musicians, sound technicians, directors, dancers, singers and actors are all from the rank and file of Mormon membership giving freely of their volunteer efforts.  Mormons and friends of other faiths are whole-heartedly invited to enjoy one or more of these presentations on gospel subjects.  The scale is grand, and the messages spiritually uplifting.
