On all upcoming Easter Sundays and Sundays near Christmas, members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints will attend a single Church service.
Typical Sabbath day worship for Church members includes attending a sacrament meeting one hour and the other hour they attend either Sunday School or classes divided by various quorums and age groups.
