Mormon can be kind of a big term that means alot of different things to different people. To some it is the guys in white shirts and ties, to others some crazy religion that did things worthy of a campfire story, and to others a friend, nieghbor, or family member. Whatever mormon means to you here's a little bit about what we try to be.
We try to be good people. One of the most gratifying things that I have heard said about us by others is that we actually live what we teach. We may talk and rejoice in Christ (because we are Christians) but we also try to be like Christ. We are still far off the mark and often mess-up.
We try to worship God in the correct way. With all the differing ideas about God its good to have some stability. We believe that we have a prophet that directs us just as prophets like Moses and Abraham directed people in their own time.
Our religion isn't a new American religion. We believe it to be the same religion that Christ brought to the earth, but now restored the way it was intended to be!!

When there is a natural disaster, often the Mormons are one of the first organizations helping.
