Latter-day Saint

A Latter Day Saint is a person who identifies with the Latter Day Saint movement, and is a follower of Mormonism. Latter Day Saints trace their religious heritage through Joseph Smith, Jr., and teach that he restored the original "Church of Christ", which had disappeared from the earth after a period of apostasy. Latter Day Saints consider themselves to be "saints" in the earliest Christian sense of the word, meaning members of the original church which they believe Jesus organized before his death in the First Century, AD.
