Order Of Saint Benedict The Order of Saint Benedict — full Latin name: Ordo Sancti Benedicti , initials: OSB — is a monastic order within the Roman Catholic Church, sometimes referred to as the Benedictine Order, where the Rule of St Benedict is observed, supplemented by later constitutions and modern customaries. It is fundamentally different from other Western religious orders: there is no legal entity within the Church called the "Order of St Benedict", run on similar lines with other Roman Catholic religious orders with their Generalates and Superiors General. Rather, the various autonomous Houses (that is, communities) have formed themselves loosely into Congregations (for example, Cassinese, English, Solesmes, Subiaco, Camaldolese, Sylvestrines) that in turn are represented in the Benedictine Confederation.
Church Of Jesus Christ Of Latter-Day Saints The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, widely known as the "LDS Church" or the "Mormon Church", is by far the largest denomination within the Latter Day Saint movement (Mormonism), a type of Christian Restorationism. The Church is headquartered in Salt Lake City, Utah, in the United States.
History Of The Church Of Jesus Christ Of Latter-Day Saints The early history of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is shared by the larger Latter Day Saint movement, which originated in upstate New York under the leadership of Joseph Smith, Jr.. With the important assistance of Oliver Cowdery and Sidney Rigdon, Smith dictated and published works of scripture, claimed to be visited by angels, and formed a new church. In part because of the rapid growth of the movement, and in part because of its distinct doctrines and practices, the early Latter Day Saints encountered opposition wherever they gathered in numbers. In the first decades of their history, they gathered to and were driven from Kirtland, Ohio, Independence, Missouri, Far West, Missouri, and Nauvoo, Illinois. Finally, on July 26, 1844, their founding prophet was assassinated in a prison at Carthage, Illinois.
