LDS Tours in Australia | LDS Tours in Cancun
The history of The Church of Jesus Christ of latter-day Saints in Australia, begins when the first couple of missionaries arrived in 1840. Four years later they organized the first branch with just a few converts.
In the early 1850, after hard working, more missionaries kept arriving and baptizing people in Melbourne, where they also established a small congregation. Many converts decided to emigrate to Salt Lake City, Utah in order to follow the calling of the prophet.
It was until 1905 when the first official buidling was constructed. The social acceptance of the church benefitted the growth of numbers of members, local leaders and help to improve the missionary program. The country’s first temple, located in Sydney, was completed in 1984. Now a days, there are four more temples in Melbourne, Adelaide, Perth and Brisbane, approximately 136,617 members , 290 congregations, 5 missions and 147 family history centers.
Australia has one of the most beautiful environment with unique wildlife and landscapes and at the same time is a modern place to visit.
