Meet the Mormons is a new feature-length movie that shows the diverse lives of members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. It was filmed on location across the globe to take you on a journey into the day-to-day realities of members living in the Himalayan mountains of Nepal, to the rain forests of Costa Rica, to the Salt Lake Valley.
This is the first time in the Church’s history that they have released a feature-length movie documentary in theaters.
The movie starts with a lighthearted look at how members of the Church are often misperceived. Then it introduces six families, portraying their passions and their daily struggles as they live their faith and follow Jesus Christ.
Meet the Mormons will be in theaters in select cities in the USA beginning October 10, 2014. Below is a trailer from the film.
Visit MeetTheMormons.com to learn more about the stories of members in the film and to see a trailer of the movie.
Although the film was financed by the Church, all net proceeds from the theatrical release will be donated charity (to the American Red Cross to assist in the great work that they do around the world).
This movie is one way you can share your beliefs with your family and friends in a simple and effective way. When sharing information about the movie, please use the hashtag #MeetTheMormons.

Are there plans to make this available on DVD for individual purchase and home use and missionary work? I can think of many people I’d love to give this to.
Tony,
After the theater showings, it will later become available in visitors centers and online. I don’t know of plans for a DVD.

This is a first class documentary. The footage of the U.S. Naval Academy was awe inspiring. I know, I went there. That is where I took the missionary discussions and joined The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (1976). They captured the experience so well, I plan on purchasing many copies of this DVD to share with many of my classmates. The final segment in this DVD brought me to tears. If you have a heart, you will connect with this film in some way. Feel the Spirit of Meet the Mormons and you’ll know what to do.
Where can I buy the Meet the Mormon movie?
Please make a Meet the Mormon series part 2…movie.
Also, there is a woman in our LDS church ward whose story need to be featured in a Meet the Mormon movie.
She was an atheist and became a Christian…
Her story starts out her filling up water balloons and blasting the missionary brothers as they rode their bikes…
It is a miracles–the chain of events that happened in this woman’s life…
Please consider featuring her in your next Meet the Mormon movie production???
Thank you,
agh
