History c. 1945- Present, Post World War II International
Era Period |
| "Since World War II, the Church has
enjoyed—and had to cope with—rapid
international growth. After summarizing postwar
revitalization and the attendant increases in membership,
the article focuses on the adaptations that accompanied
growth and internationalization. In surveying recent
developments, it provides an introduction to the
contemporary Church." Encyclopedia

| Christus Statue |
| "Replicas of the Christus statue by Danish
sculptor Bertel Thorvaldsen (1768-1844) are located in
several LDS visitors centers. These white carrara marble
statues of Christ, with his hands outstretched, inviting
all to come to him, help present the central doctrine of
the Church: that Jesus of Nazareth is the Son of God and
the Savior and Redeemer of the world. (See Teachings About
Jesus Christ home page)" Encyclopedia
