The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints: A Global Faith in Transition
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has spent the past few weeks in a moment of both mourning and transition.
A shooting and arson at a Latter-day Saints meetinghouse in Michigan killed four people and wounded eight more on October 28, 2025. This incident occurred just a day after the death of President Nelson, who passed away at age 101.
Following President Nelson's death, Oaks, the longest-serving of the church’s top leaders, was announced as the new president on October 2025.
