Holidays Celebrated by the Mormons
We receive a lot of requests asking if Mormons celebrate Easter, birthdays and other holidays that most Christians observe. When I was in the Mormon Church it didn’t occur to me that by not observing things like Good Friday would be looked upon as strange by those outside of our clan. Now that I’m a Christian I look with eager anticipation for Holy Week to come around every year. It’s hard to believe that I used to be so ignorant about such important items in life.
Mormons observe all holidays and birthdays that everyone else does in America. With the exception of Easter day they do not celebrate any days during Holy Week. They also don’t observe Ash Wednesday, Pentecost, Lent or Passover.
As my experience in the Christian lifestyle grew I came to realize just how empty my spiritual life was as a Mormon and how grateful I am now to the Lord for His awesome gift of salvation!
Please come alongside us to lift these dear people up in prayer for God to open their hearts and eyes to accept His free gift of love and salvation!
With Love in Christ
